One night. One reveal. One community.

The Minnesota Shopping Center Association revealed its new name: the Retail Real Estate Network. The new identity reflects the continued evolution of Minnesota’s retail real estate market and the association’s enduring purpose as the connection point for people, ideas, and opportunities that move the industry forward.

“Our members lead the future of retail real estate,” said Emily Becker, 2026 Board President. “The Retail Real Estate Network captures who we are — a community of professionals shaping the next generation of retail and mixed-use development in Minnesota.”

Past President Matt Hazelton added, “This isn’t a new organization. It’s a new name for the trusted community that has always brought this industry together to grow, succeed and lead.

Cheers to what’s ahead as we move forward with our new brand!
