Why Attend?

This symposium is a standalone component of the CTBUH 10th World Congress. As the recognized international authority on tall buildings, CTBUH conferences differ significantly from the many commercial conferences now being held around the world, in terms of both quality of knowledge-sharing and networking opportunities. CTBUH events offer a wide variety of benefits to attendees, speakers, and sponsors:

  • Learn from distinguished experts on the latest in tall buildings, infrastructure and urban development
  • Gain knowledge and insight in the latest thinking on sustainability
  • Network with top, internationally-influential people in the industry
  • Develop collaborative partnerships and business leads
  • Earn Continuing Professional Education Credits
  • Better understand the business opportunities in the U.S. & Internationally
  • Promote your company through sponsorship
  • Influence best-practice thinking and policy making
  • Experience the dynamic city of Chicago
  • Tour seminal tall buildings and urban spaces (completed and under construction)
  • Enjoy social-networking events at top venues
  • Experience the multi-national, multi-disciplinary network of the CTBUH
