BUILDEX Alberta goes virtual in 2020

Friday, September 4, 2020

BUILDEX Alberta is going virtual in 2020 and will be held November 30 – December 4, 2020.

Given the uncertainties facing all businesses in 2020, including live meetings, BUILDEX has decided for this year only to offer a 100 per cent virtual event as part of Buildings Week, brought to you by The Buildings Show and BUILDEX Alberta. The joint delivery will provide all the benefits of a live show, plus innovative features not possible from an in-person event.

“BUILDEX is Alberta’s largest business-to-business event connecting the entire building
industry.”, says Patti Stewart, executive vice president, Informa Canada. “For over two decades, industry professionals have relied on us for continuing education, networking, generating new business and finding new products. We are committed in both 2020 and beyond to deliver our events and support the building and construction industries.”

Buildings Week brings together five key events in Canada’s building industry calendar: BUILDEX Alberta, Construct Canada, PM Expo, Homebuilder & Renovator Expo and World of Concrete Toronto Pavilion. This unification enables them to develop a powerful online platform for the benefit of attendees, sponsors, speakers and exhibitors.

By BUILDEX Alberta going virtual as part of Buildings Week, the province’s building industry will now have access to over 120 professionally accredited, educational seminars and extensive networking, as well as a new and innovative digital tradeshow marketplace. Additionally, the virtual experience will be enhanced through AI-driven matchmaking and on-demand access to content, accessible anywhere through mobile or desktop.

“The CCA has been a supporter of BUILDEX for many years as an important partner in our connection to the local industry.”, says Bill Black, president & COO, Calgary Construction Association. “By embracing this new reality and continuing with this event, BUILDEX has provided an exciting opportunity for new virtual connections. At times such as these we are reminded just how important it is to connect more than ever around new ideas along with our peers and colleagues. This is welcome news for our industry in Calgary and across Alberta.”
