Celebrating Jamie Korzan: MSPBJ Women in Business

At Oppidan, success is more than a goal; it's a testament to the dedication and leadership of individuals like Jamie Korzan, our VP of Investment Relations and a shining example of business excellence. Jamie's impact on Oppidan's growth and reputation is undeniable, which is why it’s fitting that Jamie received the Women in Business award from the Minneapolis/St. Paul Business Journal.

For more than five years, Jamie has been the driving force behind Oppidan's investor relations strategy, forging strong connections with industry giants like Kayne Anderson, Bailard, Harrison Street, and Rockpoint Group. Her role as the primary liaison between Oppidan and its investors has been instrumental in positioning the company for financial success.

Under Jamie's guidance, Oppidan's portfolio has seen remarkable expansion, with projects valued at over $4.9 billion across 42 states and parts of Canada. From senior housing communities to multi-family developments and industrial projects, Jamie's expertise has been pivotal in each endeavor.

Notably, Jamie's leadership has propelled Oppidan's senior housing portfolio to new heights. Her involvement in projects like Oppidan’s Pillars Senior Living Communities has not only led to significant sales but also garnered prestigious awards, including the Gold Nugget Award for Best Service Enriched Senior Community, SAGE Awards from the Building Industry Association of Southern California, NAIOP Award of Excellence and MN Real Estate Journal awards.

Beyond her professional achievements, Jamie is deeply engaged in industry associations like NAIOP and LeadingAge Minnesota, showcasing her commitment to continuous learning and networking. She actively participates in events like the MN Real Estate Journal Senior Housing Summit, where her insights contribute to the broader conversation on senior housing trends and innovations.

Moreover, Jamie's dedication extends beyond the boardroom, as she volunteers her time at Eagle Brook Church in Wayzata, demonstrating her passion for giving back to the community.

Her exemplary leadership, unwavering commitment, and relentless pursuit of excellence serve as an inspiration, and we’re proud of Jamie for receiving the prestigious Women in Business award.
