About this Event

ABOUT REALSTORIES

RealStories, powered by the MāKin Foundation, combines the power of inspiration with action to improve inclusion and diversity in Toronto's Commercial Real Estate and Development (CRED) and adjacent industries (urban planning, construction, architecture, etc.). For our upcoming in-person event we have the honour of hearing the story of Benjamin Bakst and Elliot Kazarnovsky, Co-Founders of the Baz Group of Companies.

Join us to hear their journeys of entrepreneurship, leadership and community. With over 40 years of real estate experience combined, Benjamin and Elliot have been responsible for helping change the residential landscape of the city. From leading one of the largest condominium development firm in the GTA to rebranding their company from Marlin Spring to Baz Group, the company has expanded to retirement communities and the US market, but the commitment to delivering excellent real estate has never wavered.

As Co-Founders both Benjamin and Elliott have been recognized for their leadership by multiple organizations such at EY Entrepreneur of the Year and the Globe and Mail Best Executive Awards.

We look forward to hearing their story on September 17th. Join us!
