IBcon 2024 | Precon: Smart Building Integrator Summit (SBIS)

June 19 | 12:30 pm - 3:30 pm | Tampa Convention Center

In the realm of smart building design and execution, a myriad of systems synergize to optimize building operations. The master systems integrator takes the owner/developer’s vision and aligns the people and technologies for all systems and processes to ensure seamless functionality of diverse smart building technologies throughout the lifespan of the building.

With the rapid evolution of smarter building technologies and increasingly complex integrations, deep knowledge of building systems as well as client business requirements is essential to meet the needs of today’s open architected, interoperable, integrated, IP-centric intelligent buildings, portfolios, campuses, and cities.

This specialized Summit provides an invaluable platform for networking with industry peers and learning about the impact of new building standards and regulations, while expanding on traditional integrator services.
