BUILDING OUR LEADERS IN DEVELOPMENT
Learn the system. Meet the people. Build the region.
What is BOLD?
A deeper bench for a region that needs one.
Infrastructure, capital and city decisions being made in Tarrant County this year will shape the region for a generation. BOLD exists to make sure we have prepared leaders in the room when those decisions get made.
Over eleven months, mid-career professionals move through the full commercial real estate lifecycle together, from raw land to lease-up. They sit with the people who actually move projects forward in Fort Worth, Arlington and across Tarrant County. They walk job sites, tour the region, sit in a city council work session room and take apart a capital stack. They deliver a group community impact project. And they finish ready to serve on a board, chair a committee or step into the civic work this region depends on.
There are strong leadership programs in North Texas. None of them were built for the Tarrant County commercial real estate ecosystem. BOLD is REC of GFW's answer.

THANK YOU TO OUR FOUNDING SPONSORS
BECOME A FOUNDING SPONSOR OF BOLD
The inaugural class is being built right now. The companies that step forward as founding sponsors will have their names attached to this program for as long as it runs.
This is where REC of GFW is putting its investment in leadership this year, and where we are asking the firms that believe in this region to put theirs.
APPLY FOR THE INAUGURAL CLASS OF 2027
Up to thirty seats. One class. The people who fill them will set the tone for every BOLD class that follows.
