PROGRAM

We are hosting our first day-long conference devoted to construction innovation at UC Berkeley! 

Our aim is to bring together Cal alums and others working as contractors, designers, owners, and other construction-related parties, to identify and reflect on innovations that are shaping our industry and means to improve their ability to deliver value and advance their cost-competitiveness and profitability. The day’s agenda includes presentations by developers and adopters of innovations in the fields of technology, materials, productivity and lean construction. The day will conclude with a dinner and award ceremony.
