Sustainable Building Manitoba's annual gathering is an opportunity for our community to come together and learn from leading experts and each other.
The gathering will take place over 3 afternoons and will explore industry innovations and sector updates on things like codes and legislation. Each day will have four 30 minute presentations full of useful and inspiring information.
Between each presentation there will be a 15 minute break where participants can network and reconnect with their colleagues in an easy-to-use virtual space Gather.Town. This will be an excellent time to socialize with folks you have not seen in awhile or to make new connections. There will also be posters around the space to provide additional learning opportunities. Or you can use the time to make tea and catch up on a bit of work.
Together we will build a resilient province!
