WHY THIS EVENT MATTERS
Southwest Florida Isn’t Just Growing. It’s Being Built.
Growth
Building a Stronger Community
Every new development, school, hospital, roadway and commercial project starts with the people behind it.
On September 17, we're bringing those people together.
Leaders across construction, development, design, business and government will come together to celebrate our first year and be part of the conversation about what's next for Southwest Florida.
The value of this experience isn't measured by how many people attend. It's measured by who is in the room.
Because the future isn’t built by one company. It’s built by the relationships we create together.
The Right People.
The Right Conversations.
The Right Opportunities.
The value of this event isn’t measured by how many people attend—it’s measured by who is in the room.
The First Anniversary Experience brings together the professionals who influence, design, build, supply, and support Southwest Florida’s continued growth.
WHO’S IN THE ROOM
• Developers • General Contractors
• Architects • Engineers
• Manufacturers • Suppliers
• Subcontractors • Commercial Real Estate

The right opportunities start with being in the right room.

This experience is intentionally different.

Because the most valuable opportunities don’t happen during presentations—they happen through the relationships built around them.
