Many corporate real estate organizations are tasked with procuring "green" space through their leasing efforts and many Landlords are trying to accommodate this demand. Green leasing can be a complicated process with many traps which can result in substantial unexpected costs or increased liability on both sides. This session covers negotiating a lease that will achieve objectives, including what to look out for specifically and resources available. Cisco discusses how they implemented a successful and comprehensive "green" leasing program that supported the firm's GHG (GreenHouse Gas) reduction goals by designing a pilot program and establishing a real estate "center of excellence" to implement globally.
Key Takeaways
How a global company went about designing and implementing an award winning global "green" leasing program.
Provide a specific and accessible list of resources that will give examples of Landlord and Tenant-friendly "green" leases and help ensure objectives are met during negotiations and build out of space.
