to join a world-class organization doing mission and member-driven
work that advances the built environment," said incoming
ULI Global CEO Angela Cain. "I
come to the position eager to listen and learn from the globally
recognized expertise of ULI's members, volunteer leaders, donors,

the search. The committee meticulously reviewed an extensive and
diverse list of candidates, ensuring Cain was the ideal choice to
lead ULI into the future. Cain will work closely with the Global
