IMAGINiT Technologies Launches “Design Green” Sustainability Roadshow

Attendees will hear more about the emerging trends of sustainability and BIM and will examine the key business benefits of implementing such a solution. Hearing from a mixture of industry visionaries will give attendees insight into why it is important to take sustainable design methods into consideration during the entire building process.

One such visionary is Dr John Francis, world famous and bestselling author of Planetwalker: How to Change Your World One Step at a Time. After witnessing an oil spill in the early ‘70’s, Dr. Francis made the decision to stop using motorized vehicles. Several months later, to stop the arguments about the power of one person's actions, he took a vow of silence for 17 years. Dr. Francis will speak of his fascinating journey, and share his unique perspective on environment, and how we can each make a difference in our world.

In addition to Dr. Francis, each event will feature regional industry experts who will describe real world projects in which BIM and sustainable design were key considerations. As an added bonus, these events are being hosted in facilities where sustainable design was a key component of the architectural design of the facility.

IMAGINiT’s Design Green Roadshow runs from October 13 – 21, kicking off in Portland, OR, before moving on to Seattle, WA, Boston, MA and finally ending in New York, NY. For more information and to register, visit www.rand.com/imaginit/designgreen.
