“The Emerging Leaders program has never been more relevant for the multifamily industry than now,” said Rishi Gupta, the 2023 Chair of the NMHC Emerging Leaders Committee. “Our strategic goals for 2023 include expanding our programming, strengthening our alumni network and supporting NMHC’s advocacy efforts to make the case for supply-focused solutions to our nation’s housing affordability crisis."
