On Friday, October 9, 2026, PROFILEmiami hosted the 3rd Annual PROFILEmiami Pre-Construction Development Summit Presented by Sterling Risk Insurance at the Coral Gables Museum. Bringing over 450 members of South Florida’s development community together, the evening paired a real estate development showcase with three panels and a networking cocktail soirée, connecting the people and projects shaping the region’s next chapter.

The historic museum in Downtown Coral Gables provided a fitting setting for an event centered on the built environment. Developers, brokers, investors, architects, financiers and development sales teams came together around a shared focus: the future of South Florida real estate, from Miami and Fort Lauderdale to the Palm Beaches.

The Showcase Experience

At the heart of the Summit was the development showcase, giving industry professionals an opportunity to connect directly with project teams and explore a broad cross-section of the region’s residential market. The lineup brought branded residences, boutique developments, waterfront addresses and neighborhood-focused projects together under one roof. The showcase was designed to accelerate and streamline the project discovery process between development sales teams and brokers.

Coral Gables and Coconut Grove were represented by Ponce Park Residences Coral Gables and Ziggurat Coconut Grove from Allen Morris Company; Cassia The Residences at Coral Gables from Alta Developers; Cora Merrick Park from Constellation Group and The Boschetti Group; and The Lincoln Coconut Grove from Element Development / LORE Development Group, in partnership with Leste Group and Opportunity Fundo de Investimento Imobiliário. Colette Residences from Meta Development added another distinctive project to the showcase.

The lineup also featured 619 Brickell by Nobu · Foster + Partners from 13th Floor Investments and Key International; Anantara Miami Resort + Residences from One Thousand Group; Edge House Miami from Grupo T&C; Elle Residences from Vertical Developments; HQ Residences Miami from Constellation Group, The Boschetti Group and Black Salmon; Season One Brickell from BI Group; and The William from Blue Road and Ilia Development. Together, these projects reflected the range of concepts competing for attention in South Florida’s evolving new development market.

Continuum Company showcased its portfolio through Continuum 12000 Sport & Wellness Residences, Continuum Club & Residences and La Baia North. Ella Miami Beach, from Constellation Group, Vietmar and The Boschetti Group, and Palma Del Lago Miami Lakes, from GT Group USA, further expanded the showcase’s geographic reach.

In Fort Lauderdale, the participating projects included Pier Sixty-Six Residences from Tavistock and Selva House from OUTTELIER. The Palm Beach market was represented by Related Ross’ Shorecrest WPB, Edgeworth West Palm Beach and South Flagler House, alongside Greenview at Presidential from Lennar and BH Group. Across all 24 participating projects, the showcase offered a concentrated look at the breadth of South Florida’s residential development pipeline.

Conversations Shaping the Next Development Cycle

The Summit’s panel program connected the market outlook with the practical considerations behind bringing a project to life. Three sessions framed the evening around demand and sales, the development equation, and the role of differentiation in the next generation of South Florida living.

5 PM — The South Florida Development Market

Demand, Markets, Development Sales & Navigating the Next Cycle

The opening panel brought together Phil Gutman (Gutman Development Marketing), Fernando de Nunez y Lugones (Vertical Developments), Adam McPherson (Related Ross), Alisa Fiorini (GT USA) and Ana Bozovic (Analytics Miami). Katya Demina of the Eklund | Gomes Team at Douglas Elliman Development Marketing moderated the discussion.

McPherson highlighted West Palm Beach’s evolution and the integral role Related Ross has played in its emergence as one of South Florida’s leading cities. Bozovic supported the conversation with data, grounding the discussion of the city’s transformation in market analysis. Together, the development, sales and research perspectives offered a look at the forces shaping demand and how industry leaders are navigating the next cycle.

6 PM — The Development Equation

Capital, Construction, Risk & What It Takes to Get Built

The second panel featured Carlos Rosso (Rosso Development), Ian Bruce Eichner (Continuum Company), Alex Peters(Constellation Group) and Olzhas Ayazbayev (BI Group). Jonathan Friedman of Sterling Risk Insurance, the Summit’s title sponsor, moderated the conversation.

Eichner and Rosso explored how South Florida’s neighborhoods have changed and emerged, emphasizing the qualities people increasingly seek in a place to live: safety, walkability and access to the water. Their discussion also addressed the need for more affordable housing and a broader range of price points. They underscored that development does not always need to mean residences costing millions of dollars, bringing the conversation back to how new projects can serve a wider spectrum of housing needs.

7 PM — Developing with Differentiation

Branding, Design, Amenities & the Next Generation of South Florida Living

The closing panel featured Allie Eichner (Continuum Company), Spencer Morris (Allen Morris Co.), Jay Roberts(Prosper Group), Louis Birdman (One Thousand Group), Inigo Ardid (Key International) and Fred Zutel (Lockton Insurance).

Morris discussed the importance of provenance and the increasingly detailed way buyers evaluate a new development. Beyond a project’s initial impression, buyers want to understand how it will live day to day, the quality of its finishes and how a residence can accommodate their needs. He noted that some buyers are combining units, reflecting demand for homes tailored to the way they want to live.

Roberts spoke about his newly revealed Bugatti Residences, while Birdman discussed distinctive amenities, including helipads, and the role of architectural design in setting a project apart. Ardid explored how a brand can add value to a building while emphasizing that branding is not the most important factor in a project’s success.

Across the discussion, the panelists agreed that wellness and longevity are major priorities for the next generation of South Florida living, reinforcing the importance of thinking about the resident experience alongside a project’s design, identity and amenities.

Showcase, Connections & Community

Alongside the development projects, the showcase included presenting sponsor Sterling Risk Insurance, as well as Blackline, Hegra, Lockton Insurance, Resimo and Tower Capital Partners. Their participation reflected the wider network of services, expertise and partnerships supporting South Florida’s development industry.

The networking component carried the conversation beyond the panel room, creating space for introductions and connections among project teams and industry professionals. Set within the Coral Gables Museum, the evening linked a forward-looking development conversation with a venue dedicated to architecture, urban planning, historic preservation and design. A portion of ticket proceeds benefited the museum.

Panelists and hosts at the 2026 PROFILE State of the Market event at Artefacto Coral Gables.

On Tuesday, May 12, 2026, PROFILEmiami hosted the 4th Annual PROFILE State of the Market 2026 presented by Tower Capital Partners at the luxurious Artefacto flagship showroom in Coral Gables, bringing together more than 200 of South Florida’s leading developers, brokers, investors, financiers, architects, designers, and real estate professionals for an evening of high-level market insight, bespoke networking, and real estate showcase activations. Topics that emerged were that 2026 is the “Year of the End User”, and themes of “Pricing & Provenance” with “long term livability”.

The Showcase highlighted PROFILEmiami’s continued focus on streamlining discovery and connection across South Florida’s pre-construction market. Throughout the evening, Blackline presented live demonstrations of its real estate development sales software platform, while luxury developments including Ponce Park Coral Gables, Parkline Brickell, and The Mansions at Fisher Island showcased their projects to many of South Florida’s top real estate brokers and industry professionals. In the weeks following the event, the showcased developments collectively went on to close more than $100 million in sales, reinforcing the power of curated broker engagement and in-person relationship building in today’s market.

Moderated by T.J. Sabo, Founder & CEO of SABO+, the panel featured Spencer Morris, President of The Allen Morris Company; Jay Phillip Parker, CEO of Brokerage, Florida Region and President of Douglas Elliman Development Marketing, Florida; David-Emmanuel Cohen, CEO of Madar Group USA and developer of The Mansions on Fisher Island; John Parsiani, VP of Sales at Aria Reserve and founder of Parsiani Real Estate; and Fernando de Núñez y Lugones, CEO of Vertical Developments. Together, the conversation explored some of the most important forces shaping South Florida real estate in 2026 — from luxury pricing and consumer psychology to product evolution, end-user demand, hospitality-driven living and long-term market positioning.

The panel concluded with a pro-real estate development word from Emmy Award Winning Former CBS4 Miami Anchor Elliot Rodriguez who is currently campaigning for the House of Representatives for the 27th Congressional District of Florida in the 2026 Mid-Term Elections.

As Miami continues evolving into one of the world’s premier luxury real estate destinations, conversations like those at the 4th Annual PROFILE State of the Market 2026 continue helping define how developers, brokers, architects, financiers and sales teams adapt to a more sophisticated, globally minded buyer increasingly focused on quality, customization, hospitality, and long-term value. Through elevated events like PROFILEconnect, PROFILEmiami continues reinforcing its role at the center of South Florida’s real estate conversation — delivering insight, access and meaningful connection at the highest level.

Panels:

One of the evening’s most discussed themes centered around “Pricing & Provenance” and “long term livability” in Miami’s rapidly maturing ultra-luxury condominium market. David-Emmanuel Cohen discussed how Miami’s top-tier residential market is now achieving pricing levels exceeding $5,000 to $6,000+ per square foot, positioning the city alongside ultra-prime global destinations such as Monaco and St. Barth. Spencer Morris expanded on the growing importance of provenance, craftsmanship and material authenticity in luxury development, sharing how The Allen Morris Company traveled to Carrara, Italy to personally source marble for its projects in an effort to create more enduring, deeply intentional residences. Jay Phillip Parker echoed the importance of quality and execution, emphasizing that today’s luxury buyers are increasingly prioritizing authenticity, lasting value, and buildings designed for long-term ownership rather than short-term speculation.

The panel also explored the continued evolution of the luxury buyer. Spencer Morris described 2026 as “the year of the end user,” explaining how premium, highly customized residences increasingly dominate demand as buyers seek homes designed for long-term living, personalization and permanence. The discussion highlighted how many affluent purchasers are combining units to create larger, more bespoke living environments that better reflect lifestyle needs, privacy expectations and family use patterns.

Further conversation explored how evolving consumer expectations are creating entirely new categories of luxury living and hospitality-driven real estate experiences. Jay Phillip Parker discussed the growing opportunity within branded hospitality-driven multifamily developments and luxury assisted living, explaining how consumers are increasingly willing to pay premiums for hospitality-caliber services, wellness offerings and elevated programming traditionally associated with luxury hotels and branded residences. He also noted the long-term opportunity for world-class healthcare providers and hospitality operators to collaborate in creating a new standard for luxury wellness-focused senior living.

Panelists also discussed the evolving divide between large-scale amenitized towers and smaller boutique luxury developments. John Parsiani explained how many buyers continue gravitating toward larger towers for their expansive amenity packages, resort-style experiences and “lock-and-leave” convenience, particularly among seasonal and international residents. Fernando de Núñez y Lugones then highlighted how, at the highest end of the market, many true end users increasingly prioritize privacy, exclusivity and intimacy — driving demand for smaller boutique buildings — while investors often remain more attracted to larger-scale developments offering operational efficiencies and expansive amenity ecosystems.

PROFILEmiami hosted its third annual PROFILE Design Summit 2026 at Atrium at Trackside in partnership with Sexy Bedding and Eclectic Elements, bringing together South Florida’s leading architects, developers, designers, builders, and industry professionals for an evening of elevated dialogue and bespoke networking focused on the future of design and development.

PROFILEmiami hosted its third annual PROFILE Design Summit 2026 at Atrium at Trackside in partnership with Sexy Bedding and Eclectic Elements, bringing together South Florida’s leading architects, developers, designers, builders, and industry professionals for an evening of elevated dialogue and bespoke networking focused on the future of design and development.

Building on PROFILEmiami’s legacy of industry-leading real estate forums, the Design Summit continues to serve as a premier platform for exploring the evolving intersection of architecture, interior design, landscape architecture, and the economics of development across South Florida’s luxury residential and commercial markets.

The evening began with an immersive Design Showcase, featuring a curated selection of top-tier brands, firms, and service providers shaping the region’s most prestigious developments. Attendees engaged with leaders across the design and construction ecosystem, including Edge House, Hegra, LUC Electric, Sexy Bedding, Ero Lighting, IVEY Design Build, IVEY Punch, Cetta Group, Samaan Design Group, and Eclectic Elements, among others.

The showcase highlighted the full spectrum of ultra-luxury development—from architecture and interiors to custom kitchens, millwork, lighting, smart-home technology, wellness systems, and advanced security solutions—offering a comprehensive look at the innovation driving South Florida’s design-forward growth.

Following the initial bespoke networking period guests sat down to listen to two engaging panels led by PROFILEmiami Co-Founder Demetri Demascus. The first panel, Designing for Luxury & Longevity, explored a powerful shift in the definition of luxury—moving beyond aesthetics to focus on human longevity, wellness, and long-term livability. Panelists included Ralph Choeff (Choeff Levy Fischman), Mikael Hamaoui (Riviera Horizons / Pagani Residences Miami), Tatiana Sheveleva (CHAPI Design), Kathy Samaan (Samaan Design Group), Monica Suleski (Eclectic Elements / Sexy Bedding), and Michael Cetta (Cetta Group). A central theme emerged early in the discussion: wellness is no longer an amenity—it is the foundation of modern luxury.

The second panel, Architecture, Landscape Design & the Economics of Development, shifted focus to the intersection of design and economics, examining how architecture, landscape design, and execution directly impact value creation, market performance, and long-term returns. Panelists included Michael Konig (One Thousand Group), Alejandro Acebal (Aceball Canney Arquitectos & Asociados), Ralph Choeff (Choeff Levy Fischman), Andres Arcila (Naturalficial, Inc.), Kirk Ivy (IVEY Punch / IVEY Design Build), and Ronald Bloomberg (Atrium at Trackside). The discussion opened with a key question: whether architecture should be viewed as a cost center or a primary driver of value. Panelists widely agreed that in today’s competitive market, design excellence is a critical differentiator, influencing everything from absorption rates to long-term asset performance.

Following the panel discussions, guests returned to the Design Showcase for continued bespoke networking and cocktails in a relaxed yet elevated setting, fostering meaningful connections across the development, design, and construction community.

The PROFILE Design Summit 2026 once again demonstrated PROFILEmiami’s role as a leading platform for convening the professionals shaping South Florida’s built environment. By bringing together leaders across disciplines, the event highlighted a defining shift in the market: Luxury is no longer defined solely by appearance—it is measured by performance, experience, and the ability of a space to support long-term health, well-being, and value.

Panel 1: Designing for Luxury & Longevity

Panel 1: Designing for Luxury & Longevity

The first panel, moderated by Demetri Demascus of PROFILEmiami, explored a powerful shift in the definition of luxury—moving beyond aesthetics to focus on human longevity, wellness, and long-term livability.

Panelists included Ralph Choeff (Choeff Levy Fischman), Mikael Hamaoui (Riviera Horizons / Pagani Residences Miami), Tatiana Sheveleva (CHAPI Design), Kathy Samaan (Samaan Design Group), Monica Suleski (Eclectic Elements / Sexy Bedding), and Michael Cetta (Cetta Group). The panel was moderated by Demetri Demascus (PROFILEmiami).

A central theme emerged early in the discussion: wellness is no longer an amenity—it is the foundation of modern luxury. Panelists emphasized that today’s buyers are increasingly prioritizing factors such as natural light, air quality, acoustic control, and sensory comfort as essential components of long-term value.

Architect Ralph Choeff highlighted the role of proportion, ceiling height, and spatial flow in shaping how environments influence stress levels and overall well-being over time, while Mikael Hamaoui discussed how projects like Pagani Residences Miami are integrating performance-driven design and wellness-focused programming into the residential experience.

Interior designers Tatiana Sheveleva and Kathy Samaan explored the rise of what was described as “nervous-system luxury,” where interiors are designed to calm, restore, and support daily living rather than simply impress visually. Monica Suleski further emphasized the importance of tactile comfort, sleep environments, and sensory layering in creating spaces that support long-term health.

From a construction perspective, Michael Cetta reinforced that true luxury reveals itself over time, noting that material selection, millwork quality, environmental control systems, and precision execution are critical to how buildings perform and age—particularly in South Florida’s coastal climate.

Panel 2: Architecture, Landscape Design & the Economics of Development

Michael Konig (One Thousand Group), Alejandro Acebal (Aceball Canney Arquitectos & Asociados), Ralph Choeff (Choeff Levy Fischman), Andres Arcila (Naturalficial, Inc.), Kirk Ivy (IVEY Punch / IVEY Design Build), and Ronald Bloomberg (Atrium at Trackside). The panel was moderated by Demetri Demascus (PROFILEmiami).

The discussion opened with a key question: whether architecture should be viewed as a cost center or a primary driver of value. Panelists widely agreed that in today’s competitive market, design excellence is a critical differentiator, influencing everything from absorption rates to long-term asset performance.

Landscape architect Andres Arcila emphasized the growing importance of outdoor environments, noting that landscape design has evolved from a secondary amenity to a core component of lifestyle, wellness, and value creation, particularly in South Florida’s climate.

Developers Michael Konig and Ronald Bloomberg highlighted the role of architecture and experiential design in shaping tenant demand, pricing power, and long-term NOI, particularly in mixed-use and commercial environments. Together with architects Alejandro Acebal and Ralph Choeff they discussed the importance of the developer and architect working together to ensure iconic projects are both feasible but still able to push the limits of design. They also discussed the emerging role of world-class international architects in the Miami market.

Kirk Ivy provided insight into the realities of construction, underscoring the importance of aligning architectural ambition with execution feasibility, especially amid rising material and labor costs. The panel emphasized that early collaboration between developers, architects, and builders is essential to maintaining both design integrity and financial discipline.

The conversation also highlighted the rising cost of insurance and how it is reshaping underwriting, project design, and long-term risk strategy.

PGA Tour Expected To Return To Miami At The Iconic Blue Monster Course At Trump National Doral In 2026

The PGA Tour is expected to return to Miami’s iconic Blue Monster Course in 2026, with President Donal Trump’s Trump National Doral once again playing host to professional golf’s biggest stage. This highly anticipated move marks a significant chapter in the resort’s storied history and a major win for South Florida’s sports and tourism economy.

The PGA Tour is expected to return to Miami’s iconic Blue Monster Course in 2026, with President Donal Trump’s Trump National Doral once again playing host to professional golf’s biggest stage. This highly anticipated move marks a significant chapter in the resort’s storied history and a major win for South Florida’s sports and tourism economy. Official confirmation is still pending but signs are pointing to the tournament being a fixture on the PGA Tour’s schedule as a signature event. Additionally, LIV Golf’s Miami stop has been removed from their 2026 schedule and the R&A’s new leadership under Martin Darbon announced this morning that they have had talks with Eric Trump about returning The Open Championship to the Trump-owned Trump Turnberry in Scotland after the previous chief executive had vowed to not host an event at a Trump Organization owned property despite Trump Organization owning many of the world’s most iconic and historical golf courses.

Originally opened in 1962, Trump National Doral has long been synonymous with world-class golf. The resort gained international prestige by hosting the PGA Tour’s Doral Open for over 50 years, followed by the World Golf Championships-Cadillac Championship until 2016. In 2012 the property was acquired by President Donal Trump’s Trump Organization and underwent a $250 million renovation, updating its four golf courses, including the legendary Blue Monster, and upgrading the 800-acre resort with luxury accommodations, enhanced amenities, and expansive event space. Trump National Doral has also hosted the LIV Golf’s Miami event for the past several seasons, maintaining its place as a world-class global golf destination.

The PGA Tour’s return is expected to bring a substantial economic boost to Miami-Dade County. PGA Tour events generate tens to hundreds of millions of dollars in economic impact for host cities as they attract tens of thousands of visitors, filling hotel rooms, restaurants, and local businesses. Additionally, national TV coverage and international exposure reinforces Miami’s position as a premier sports and lifestyle destination. A 2026 PGA Tour event in Miami would generate new opportunities for local vendors, sponsors, and hospitality operators to drive business.

In addition to golf, Trump National Doral has become an anchor in the Doral real estate market, contributing to the city’s emergence as a luxury residential and commercial hub. Its presence has helped elevate nearby property values and spurred ongoing development, from gated communities to retail and office expansions. As the PGA Tour prepares to return to the fairways of Trump National Doral, the event represents more than a sporting revival—it signals the reemergence of a South Florida landmark in the international spotlight.
