4—SME Workshops featuring… you!
What are you an expert in? I know that each of you has a deep expertise that would help us move forward as a community. Our SME workshops are a great way to get your name out there, build relationships, and get feedback on your ideas.
To grab a spot on our calendar in the future to teach the community... just hit reply and we'll work out the details.
5—Upcoming ways to get involved
There's a lot of fun to be had in May! Here are a few things to look forward to...
- Subject Matter Expert Workshop: Pro member Matt White, Vice President, Building Solutions at Buildings IOT, will present on the intersection of the Master Systems Integrator (MSI) role and the Independent Data Layer (IDL). Why is it ideal to have the MSI as the provider / owner / developer of that IDL? What are the advantages of an IDL that has been influenced by the experience of an MSI? How does having an IDL change the dynamics and impact of an MSI on a project?
- Member Gathering: Pro member Lizzie Adams, Vice President, Goldman Sachs Asset Management - Real Estate Investing, will join the group for a candid discussion on setting decarbonization targets, plans to get to those targets, and how technology can help.
Invites to come...
