It's already 2017! How did that happen so quickly? Well, now that the holidays are over, we're keeping the positive vibes and we're going to be starting 2017 off with a bang.
Spoilers for our upcoming Annual Meeting in a few weeks – we're going to be announcing a game, and it's going to be quite…ENGAGING! This new program will shine the spotlight on those who really make an impact in our Chapter, and we're really excited to get this going. We will also recap the advocacy victories of 2016 and announce new Board members for the 2017 cycle.
From there, we will be holding our Building Tech Forum on February 16th – a unique event exploring how green buildings are a part of the smart cities of the future. Join us for this mixer combining technology with the building sector. Science and the future are awesome.
Also, please join us on January 11th for a morning educational session with Eric Corey Freed, as he walks us through the power of exponential thinking in green building design. Register.
