Two engaging panel discussions will follow, and the event will conclude with a networking happy hour, sponsored by Building Potential.
State of Buildings – what’s working, what’s not
Building owners and operators are facing a convergence of challenges—rising costs, growing decarbonization expectations, aging infrastructure, workforce shortages, cybersecurity threats, and evolving occupant needs. In this panel discussion, leaders from both the public and private sectors will share their candid perspectives on the current state of the industry: what’s working, what’s stuck, and what kinds of solutions they need most.
Innovation Showcase: Smarter, Safer, More Responsive Buildings
This panel will feature four rapid presentations, each highlighting how smart strategies are solving different performance challenges—from energy and emissions to security and space use.
