    Exhibit Hall

    (MM03) mindful MATERIALS Presents: Building Alignment: The Role of Project Certifications to Drive Impact

    Thursday, September 28, 2023
    10:15am - 11:00am US EDT
    Location: Networking Lounge - Expo Floor
    All the acronyms. All working toward similar goals. Amazing isn’t it?
    After decades of materials innovation, world-class education, industry initiatives, LEED and LBC versions and stakeholder pledges, we still find ourselves chipping away at the surface of the changes needed in our industry. Too few materials meet the urgent sustainability needs of our time. Without rapid, global scaling of transparency and optimization in the built environment, we cannot adequately shift the market to meet climate, health, and equity goals. If you’ve been waiting for the tipping point for green building materials— this is it. Join AIA, ILFI, USGBC, and mindful MATERIALS as they share how they work together and align on the foundations of materials data and sustainability. Utilizing the mM Common Materials Framework, and recognizing the power of finding common ground, we’ll all move further and faster together.
