Dan Duffy and David Dickey joined students at the Leeds School of Business for a candid conversation on what it truly takes to build and scale a modern brokerage. From United’s growth into a Top 10 U.S. real estate company to significant investments in technology — including live demonstrations of AI agents launching soon — the discussion connected classroom learning with real-time industry evolution. The session went beyond business metrics. Students heard firsthand insights on leadership, innovation, navigating industry challenges, and building a career with intention and resilience. As host Mike DelPrete shared afterward, the energy in the room was high — and the advice was clear: **“Wake up a 10.”** We’re grateful for the opportunity to support higher education, engage with future leaders, and continue pushing the conversation forward about where real estate is headed next. ## Share this post [mailto:https%3A%2F%2Finfo.unitedrealestate.com%2Fblog%2Fwhere-real-estate-meets-the-next-generation-united-speaks-at-university-of-colorado-boulder-leeds-school-of-business](mailto:https%3A%2F%2Finfo.unitedrealestate.com%2Fblog%2Fwhere-real-estate-meets-the-next-generation-united-speaks-at-university-of-colorado-boulder-leeds-school-of-business) ## Keep reading ### [![](https://info.unitedrealestate.com/hs-fs/hubfs/United%20Spotlight-30%20(1).jpg?width=2500&height=1308&name=United%20Spotlight-30%20(1).jpg) Teamwork Tuesday Keeps Collaboration, Growth, and Culture Thriving at Pearson Smith Realty](https://info.unitedrealestate.com/blog/teamwork-tuesday-keeps-collaboration-growth-and-culture-thriving-at-pearson-smith-realty) ### [![](https://info.unitedrealestate.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Shawnee%20Doherty%20Good%20News%20Story.jpg?width=2500&height=1308&name=Shawnee%20Doherty%20Good%20News%20Story.jpg) National Recognition for Shawnee Doherty's Community Impact](https://info.unitedrealestate.com/blog/national-recognition-for-shawnee-dohertys-community-impact) ### Family of Companies ![white logos group\_URE](https://info.unitedrealestate.com/hs-fs/hubfs/white%20logos%20group_URE.png?width=243&height=156&name=white%20logos%20group_URE.png) ![white logos group\_CRR](https://info.unitedrealestate.com/hs-fs/hubfs/white%20logos%20group_CRR.png?width=243&height=156&name=white%20logos%20group_CRR.png) ![white logos group\_VPR](https://info.unitedrealestate.com/hs-fs/hubfs/white%20logos%20group_VPR.png?width=243&height=156&name=white%20logos%20group_VPR.png) ![white logos group\_Leading Edge](https://info.unitedrealestate.com/hs-fs/hubfs/white%20logos%20group_Leading%20Edge.png?width=243&height=156&name=white%20logos%20group_Leading%20Edge.png) ![white logos group\_Benchmark](https://info.unitedrealestate.com/hs-fs/hubfs/white%20logos%20group_Benchmark.png?width=243&height=156&name=white%20logos%20group_Benchmark.png) ![white logos group\_TUR](https://info.unitedrealestate.com/hs-fs/hubfs/white%20logos%20group_TUR.png?width=243&height=156&name=white%20logos%20group_TUR.png) ![Pearson Smith Logo white](https://info.unitedrealestate.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Pearson%20Smith%20Logo%20white.png?width=243&height=156&name=Pearson%20Smith%20Logo%20white.png) ![white logos group\_Gallery](https://info.unitedrealestate.com/hs-fs/hubfs/white%20logos%20group_Gallery.png?width=243&height=156&name=white%20logos%20group_Gallery.png) ![white logos group\_Platnum](https://info.unitedrealestate.com/hs-fs/hubfs/white%20logos%20group_Platnum.png?width=243&height=156&name=white%20logos%20group_Platnum.png) ![white logos group\_PPR](https://info.unitedrealestate.com/hs-fs/hubfs/white%20logos%20group_PPR.png?width=243&height=156&name=white%20logos%20group_PPR.png) ![white logos group\_MORE](https://info.unitedrealestate.com/hs-fs/hubfs/white%20logos%20group_MORE.png?width=243&height=156&name=white%20logos%20group_MORE.png) ![Allison James\_white w crest](https://info.unitedrealestate.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Allison%20James_white%20w%20crest.png?width=14928&height=2847&name=Allison%20James_white%20w%20crest.png) --- Privacy Policy · Legal · © 2025 United Real Estate.
