CCC in the Carolinas: Making Business Personal Again

by GroundBreak Carolinas Staff on April 11, 2024

Contractors, Closers & Connections (CCC) is a national private networking organization for the Who’s Who of the Commercial Real Estate and Construction industries. CCC was established to provide a deliberate forum for professionals in these industries to network, create introductions, build lifelong relationships, send referrals, share new ideas, and promote the overall advancement of the industries –in an exclusive ecosphere.

CCC President and Founder Chris Maier launched the first chapter in Atlanta five years ago and has since helped start over a dozen chapters throughout the United States. CCC has three chapters in the Carolinas: Charlotte and Raleigh in North Carolina. and Greenville in South Carolina.

“The intent behind the creation of the CCC was to offer a platform that would encourage long-lasting relationships driven through high-energy, in-person interactions while enjoying a one-of-kind networking experience in some of the most exclusive destination venues in each chapter’s respective city of influence,” said Maier. “CCC is committed to engaging with and improving upon the communities where each chapter is located by donating a portion of proceeds from every event to benefit a local 501(c)3 charitable organization.”

Each CCC chapter organizes and hosts professional, industry-specific private events to include clientele from various market designations: real estate developers, entrepreneurs, investors, building owners & owner’s representatives, property management firms, debt and equity capital partners, attorneys and consultants, elected officials, commercial real estate brokerages, and construction-related firms. Chapter leadership ensures that invitations across these verticals are perfectly balanced so that one vertical does not overshadow the other.

CCC attendee firms are responsible for millions of square feet of commercial real estate developments delivered, successfully completed brokerage transactions, and properties under management.
