JLL Opens Silicon Valley Capital Markets Office

JLL is opening a Silicon Valley Capital Markets office on January 1, 2022, and has appointed senior managing directors Jordan Angel and Will Connors as office co-heads. The capital markets group has a long history of success in Silicon Valley, having completed some of the most prominent trades, financings and capitalizations here in the last few years including America’s Center, Ameswell, Brittan West and Gateway at Millbrae Station.

It is currently marketing 20 Silicon Valley assets across all property types led by the tech and life sciences sectors.

“Silicon Valley is the technological innovation and capital center of the world and JLL is furthering its commitment to the market and the vast opportunities within it,” says Connors. “The opening of the capital markets office in Silicon Valley will position JLL as one of the only commercial real estate firms with a full suite of services for our clients.”

Angel is helming the group’s debt and equity advisory platform. After eight years with HFF, he joined JLL in 2019 as part of its merger with HFF, and focuses on debt and equity placement throughout the western region with an emphasis on Bay Area.
