AGC Sponsors NIBS Annual Conference

Earlier this month, AGC Building Division Director Sylvester Giustino joined industry stakeholders from across the country at Building Innovation 2015: The National Institute of Building Sciences Third Annual Conference & Expo. The theme of the Conference & Expo was “Creating High-Performing Resilient Communities”. The Institute presented a four-day informative agenda that highlighted its activities and programs for developing innovative solutions to improving resiliency for communities in the event of a disruptive event. Giustino represented AGC at meetings of the NIBS Consultative Council and Off Site Construction Council held during the Conference. The Consultative Council advises the Institute by making findings and recommendations for presentation to the President of the United States on developing and applying science and technology to improve the built environment. The Off-Site Construction Council (OSCC) serves as a research, education and outreach center for relevant and current information on off-site design and construction for commercial, institutional and multifamily facilities. AGC was a proud sponsor of the NIBS Annual Reception and Awards Dinner at the Conference and Expo and looks forward to working with NIBS as a partner in the coming year.
