Leading architects, designers, contractors, and developers in the Sustainability|Green Building sector will meet with environmentally progressive building product manufacturers at the 3rd Annual ProConnect SUSTAINABILITY event, from Building Design+Construction and its parent company, SGC Horizon LLC.

The program kicks off at 1:00pm Eastern on Monday, December 11 and concludes at 2:40 pm Eastern, Tuesday, December 12, 2023, at the Sawgrass Marriott Resort & Spa, Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla. (near Jacksonville).

PRODUCTIVE 1-TO-1 MEETINGS PAVE THE WAY FOR LONG-TERM PARTNERSHIPS

ProConnect Events provide intense, confidential 1-to-1 meetings between Manufacturers/Suppliers of advanced building products and systems and highly qualified Architects, Real Estate Developers, Engineers, and Contractors from top AEC/Owner firms.

These are the design, construction, and real estate professionals who execute their firms' most environmentally sensitive building projects – net-zero, LEED Platinum, Living Future, Passive House, etc. – and who also have the authority to recommend and specify environmentally rigorous building products and services across their firms' entire project portfolio.

Most Attendees come from AEC firms in the Building Design+Construction "Giants 400" rankings.

NETWORK WITH OTHER CLIMATE-ACTION LEADERS

The ProConnect format provides a great opportunity for in-depth networking with other Attendees and with Vendors who share your passion for improving the environment – at breaks, at meals, and at the Monday night reception (Dec 11). Past Attendees and Sponsors say that the noncompetitive, informal networking is one of the most valuable – and enjoyable – benefits of ProConnect.

Our 2021 and 2022 ProConnect SUSTAINABILITY events attracted many of the leading professionals in environmental design and construction in the U.S. and Canada:

BONUS BENEFIT: FREE AIA LEARNING UNITS

Attendees who are AIA members will be eligible to earn 0.25 AIA Learning Units per Vendor meeting. That can add up to 4 or more FREE Learning Units over the course of the program.
