Julio Martinez, CEO of Mno-Bmadsen, has assisted the Pokagon Band in developing a diverse portfolio of companies operating within the construction services, manufacturing, architecture, and engineering industries. “We are excited to add Cressy Commercial Real Estate to our family of portfolio companies. We have long believed that commercial real estate is a natural growth sector for our portfolio, and with Cressy as a partner will have confidence this will be a catalyst for significant growth,” said Martinez.
