Kevin Veon has joined Newmark as an executive managing director in the global real estate services firm’s Chicago office, where he will be providing landlord and tenant representation services to a myriad of clients throughout the Midwest.
Prior to joining Newmark, Veon served as an executive managing director, and founding member at GVA Chicago (formerly GVA Williams), where he was tasked with providing innovative real estate strategies for new development opportunities, conducting site selection/procurement analyses and overseeing lease negotiations on behalf of his clients.
He transitioned to GVA after seven successful years at Mesirow Financial, where he was a vice president in the realty brokerage division, focusing solely on office and industrial tenant representation transactions in Chicago and the suburban corridors. Veon attended the University of Illinois where he received a Bachelor’s degree in Communications.
“We are excited to have Kevin Veon join the Newmark team,” said Kevin Duckler, managing principal of Newmark’s Midwest region.” His 20 years of transactional experience and suburban market knowledge will be a tremendous contribution to this office as we navigate through this ever-changing economic climate and continue expanding our offices and our platform of services.”
