NAI Glickman Kovago & Jacobs, a member of the world’s premier managed network of commercial real estate firms, is proud to announce that it has been named the 2025 Office of the Year by NAI Global. The award was presented during the organization’s annual Awards & Recognition Ceremony at the 2026 NAI Global Convention held in Las Vegas, Nevada. The Office of the Year honor is NAI Global’s most prestigious firm-wide recognition, awarded to the member office that best exemplifies leadership, excellence, innovation, growth, and commitment to clients, colleagues, and the broader NAI Global network.
“This award belongs to every single member of our team,” said Michael C. Jacobs, Managing Principal of NAI Glickman Kovago & Jacobs, who accepted the award on behalf of the firm at the Las Vegas ceremony. “Over the past several years, our people have shown extraordinary dedication — to our clients, to our community, and to one another. To be recognized by NAI Global as Office of the Year is a profound honor, and it reflects not just what we have built here in Central Massachusetts, but how we have shown up as leaders within the broader NAI Global network. We have always believed that the strength of this network is only as great as the investment each firm makes in it, and we have poured ourselves into making NAI Global stronger for everyone. This is a milestone, but more than that, it is a springboard for what comes next.”
The recognition comes at a defining moment for NAI Glickman Kovago & Jacobs, which has experienced significant growth and transformation in recent years while maintaining its position as the only full-service commercial real estate firm in Central Massachusetts. The firm’s integrated platform — spanning brokerage, property management, and construction — combined with its deep local market expertise and global connectivity through NAI Global, has distinguished it as a leader not only in the Worcester market but across the NAI network.
The award also reflects the firm’s elevated role within the NAI Global organization itself. Michael C. Jacobs has served as Chairman of the NAI Global Advisory Board for the past two years, a role in which he has been instrumental in driving meaningful reforms to strengthen communication, collaboration, and networking across NAI Global’s more than 325 offices worldwide. Under his leadership, the Advisory Board introduced strategic initiatives designed to make the global network more cohesive and impactful — ensuring that member firms can better serve clients through a connected, high-functioning international platform.
In 2025, NAI Glickman Kovago & Jacobs spearheaded the revival of the NAI Global Northeast Conference. The resurrected conference brought together NAI member firms across the Northeast region to foster deeper collaboration, exchange market intelligence, and build the relationships that enable firms to better serve clients across geographic boundaries. The reinstatement of the Northeast Conference was widely praised throughout the NAI network and stands as a testament to the firm’s commitment to strengthening the global organization from within.
The 2025 Office of the Year designation is a reflection of the vision, hard work, and collaborative culture that have defined NAI Glickman Kovago & Jacobs’ trajectory. As the firm looks ahead, the recognition serves not only as a celebration of past achievement, but as a clear indicator of the exciting future that lies ahead for the team and the communities they serve.
