December Fellows Forum - What’s Trending Now? Ideas and Strategies in Preparing for Your Firm’s Future

December 13, 2012
3:45 PM - 6:30 PM

GGLO’s Space at the Steps
1301 First Avenue
Seattle, WA 98001

What starts as a trend can quickly become baseline: BIM in 2007, social media in 2004, Design/Build in 1990, or ‘desktop’ computers in 1984. Time flies when you’re having fun.

What keeps you up at night thinking about the future? What excites you? What is your role in figuring this out? What position does your firm want to take toward particular trends?

Seattle’s Fellows will share their outlooks, fears, and excitement, discussing trends affecting the future of the A/E/C world, and what they are doing as marketers to help their firms prepare. We look forward to a lively discussion and hearing predictions from the audience.

Schedule: Celebrate the holidays with some cheer prior to the Forum!
