AIA Convention 2015
May 14-16, 2015 |
AIA Convention 2015 is one of the largest and most exciting annual gatherings of architects and design professionals in the U.S. The people, the ideas, the environment, the setting—it all comes together for an experience that will supercharge your year.
That’s the big picture. Now let’s break it down.
The LUs
Get the latest on energy efficiency, learn about LEED with behind-the-scenes tours of sites that turn innovation into practice, or immerse yourself in intensive ADA training. There are nearly 300 opportunities for high-quality, interesting, of-the-moment education. We’ve segmented the schedule so you can easily follow an education track or choose an area of focus.
The innovations
Get the first look at new materials and technology from nearly 800 exhibitors. Arrive early for an in-depth, hands-on preconvention workshop and pack your schedule with career-changing seminars. And get ahead, practically speaking: Register early to get the sessions you want. Book your hotel early and get the best choice at a discount. Get to seminars 15 minutes early and you’re guaranteed a seat.
The people
Let’s start with this year’s opening keynote speaker: President Bill Clinton. He leads an event filled with visionaries, grassroots champions, change agents, and rising stars—all giving dynamic presentations, offering insightful education, and answering your questions. And you can earn education credit for all of it—including your talks with exhibitors.
The places
You take space seriously—and so do we. We also like to have some fun with it. That’s why we’re turning the Georgia World Congress Center Expo floor into a temporary built environment with dynamic visuals, theaters, lounges, and even an award-winning structure built on the spot. Outside convention doors, we show you Atlanta, with insider tours and Design + Dining events that turn city highlights into a moveable feast. Plus, Atlanta offers plenty of downtime fun—sports palaces, exclusive shopping, velvet-rope nightlife, extraordinary architecture, and quirky picnic-table dining spots.
The interactions
Students and award winners, preservationists and data engineers, experts on disaster and art-world stars—it’s a potent setting where you can shake up the status quo, start a career change, and discover new collaborators. We guarantee surprises—and a memorable and valuable experience.
