Events

At the Smart Buildings Center (SBC) we connect the building industry through hosting and participating in events and providing demonstrations throughout our space and in the real world.

Smart Buildings Exchange (SBX) – Aug 15-17, 2023

Throughout the built environment, new technologies are connecting building systems and occupants in ways that generate new and exciting opportunities. From enabling buildings to perform for occupants and owners in previously unimaginable ways, to leveraging buildings to accelerate smart cities and the clean energy transition for a cleaner and healthier planet, the opportunities are countless and inspiring. The Smart Buildings Exchange brings together the key audiences to challenge the hype, bear witness to the innovation, and explore the business case for accelerating the adoption and commercialization of smart buildings technologies and practices.
