Join us on Feb. 25 as we look at how to scale mass timber construction in towns and cities across North America.
Forests are one of North Americaâs greatest renewable resources. Wood technology â and business opportunities around it â are emerging as powerful players in building sustainable cities. The Oregon Daily Journal of Commerce and CityAge are thrilled to present Forest Cities â a look at how advanced innovative wood technologies present major opportunities in urban design and construction. | We'll look at the state of cross-laminated timber, and the opportunities it opens up for mass timber construction in towns and cities across North America. | What You'll Learn About Total Addressable Market: The scale of mass timberâs potential - continentally and globally - and how it can help solve the climate crisis Develop, Design & Build: If youâre a developer, what do you need to know? How can you get started? How do the costs and safety compare to traditional construction methods? And as an industry and urban ecosystem, how do we dramatically increase the use of wood buildings in our cities? The Business Case: Costs, safety, scalability, regulations How to Scale: Modular construction to accelerate the industry | Hear from these Speakers (More Coming Soon!) Learn from from cities, developers, designers and construction firms about how North Americaâs Forest Cities can accelerate â and benefit from â the use of wood-tech in building our cities and economy. | Nathan Torgelson Director, Seattle Department of Construction and Inspections | Dr. Galina Churkina Senior Scientist, Potsdam Institute for Climate Research | Paul Fast Founder, Fast + Epp | Brad Nile, AIA Project Executive, Andersen Construction | Get Involved in Forest Cities | There is still room for one more sponsor!
