On a September 1st, Tokyo based Italian restaurant Bonta Italia opened its doors to a diverse group of real estate professionals at a YLG organized summer networking event, for an evening of meeting of old friends and forging of new connections between bites of traditional Italian cuisine and sips of wine.  

The Daikanyama neighborhood where Bonta Italia is located is known for its “Brooklyn style” development, bringing attendees to and highlighting an area of Tokyo that has not been featured in recent events, with attendees making up a balanced mix of new and seasoned professionals from a wide range of backgrounds in the real estate industry. 

The event was a success, reaching full venue capacity with over 60 people in attendance and was lively from start to finish with an atmosphere of high spirits between peers.  

ULI Japan’s YLG Summer Networking Event at Bonta Italia curated a casual atmosphere, ideal for free and open networking among industry professionals of all ages and backgrounds, making for an enjoyable evening of shared fresh perspectives, new connections, and opening avenues for professional growth, underscoring the importance of such gatherings in building a collaborative and friendly real estate community.
