Building Innovation
Building Innovation is the annual meeting of the National Institute of Building Sciences.
It brings together government agencies, contractors, the private sector, architects, scientists and more to meet, share lessons learned, and unveil the latest tools and groundbreaking strategies that affect the building community.
The Building Innovation brand has evolved to encompass a webinar series and podcast.
This year’s event took place in Washington DC in May, focusing on three key tracks: Resilience, Technology and Building Performance/Sustainability.
