It is already August 2019 and the commercial division has been extremely busy.

It is an honor to collaborate with these commercial organizations throughout the year with member networking events and opportunities. In April, we celebrated the 6

Annual Heavy Hitters Awards Ceremony at the Ritz-Carlton in Clayton, Missouri, recognizing the top commercial practitioners’ 2018 transactions.
The 2020 nominations and elections process for Commercial leadership began in June and the new officers and directors have been approved. See the "2020 Commercial Division Leadership Announcement" below.
