Jones Lang LaSalle Incorporated announced the launch of a new long-term strategic roadmap called Accelerate 2030 during its investor briefing, outlining initiatives aimed at strengthening the company’s competitive position across its commercial real estate services and investment management businesses.

The strategy focuses on leveraging the company’s proprietary data, integrated advisory platform, industry intelligence and artificial intelligence capabilities to deepen client relationships and expand growth opportunities. The initiative is designed to drive value creation and reinforce JLL’s position as a global advisor to enterprise clients across sectors including office, industrial, multifamily, retail, hotel and data center properties.

Alongside the strategy announcement, JLL authorized an additional $2.2 billion share repurchase program. This increases the company’s total buyback authorization to $3 billion, the largest share repurchase program in its history. The company also plans to launch an accelerated share repurchase of $200 million in the near term as part of the broader capital return initiative.

JLL also introduced long-term financial targets associated with the Accelerate 2030 strategy. Through the cycle, the company is aiming for approximately 8% annual revenue growth, 12% annual adjusted EBITDA growth and 16% annual adjusted earnings per share growth.

Company leadership presented the strategy during an investor briefing, highlighting the firm’s intention to invest in high-return opportunities while continuing to return capital to shareholders. Executives emphasized that the strategy builds on JLL’s platform of global data, technology capabilities and advisory services.

Founded more than 200 years ago, JLL operates in over 80 countries with more than 113,000 employees and reported annual revenue of $26.1 billion as of 2025. Through its LaSalle Investment Management arm, the company invests in both private real estate assets and publicly traded real estate securities for clients globally.
