Hello Reader, If you couldn't tell by all the emails, we're very excited about the Design & Build San Antonio Conference this week. It looks like some of you are, too. The pre-conference chat is already starting to become active: https://app.events.ringcentral.com/events/aibd-design-build-san-antonio/reception If you've already registered and plan to attend either online or in person, log in and say hi to everyone! Tell us where you're traveling from and what excites you most about the conference. If you can't make it, we understand. But we would be remiss not to mention that you can register and watch the replays later. This is the fastest and most affordable way to get access to the replays: registering now -- AIBD.org/DesignBuildSanAntonio Once you do, you're still welcome to post in the chat and participate in any other ways you see fit! Can't wait to see your posts, P.S. If you post anything on social media regarding the conference, don't forget to use the hashtags #AIBD2024 and #CreatingWherePeopleLive. If you post about ARDA, please include #ARDA2024 :) |
