The Chemical Development and Marketing Association (CDMA) announces a new conference: B&C 2020 - Opportunities for Chemicals and Materials in the Next Generation of Building and Construction on June 3-4, 2010, Philadelphia, PA.
Building and Construction is arguably the most important business segment after agriculture. Virtually every human endeavor revolves around structures. What would B&C be without chemicals and materials? What would chemicals and materials be without B&C? It is clearly a strategic partnership. And key to any partnership is: “What’s next?” That’s what B&C 2020 is all about.
“There is no doubt that the building and construction industry is a major market for the chemical industry. From residential to commercial to infrastructure, identifying the opportunities for market growth is essential for the chemical industry,” said Ted Goldman, CDMA President.
During B&C 2020—Capitalizing on the Next Generation of Building and Construction, market leaders will share their insights into the key market drivers for the next generation of building and construction materials, and describe how innovation in chemistry can satisfy unmet needs and start creating solutions for tomorrow, today.
Session subjects for the conference are:
"The Future of Green Commercial Building"
"Improving the Integrity of the Building Envelope -- Preventing Water and Air Intrusion into In-Place and Next-Generation Buildings"
"Materials and Processes for Next-generation Architectural Design Innovations"
Four chemicals and materials companies have been selected to lead the sessions: BASF - The Chemical Company, Bayer Material Science, Dow Chemical Company and NOVA Chemicals. Topics of discussion will include novel design innovations, green building and net-zero construction trends, building integrity challenges and the emergence of life cycle analysis as a tool for informed purchasing and product development.
CDMA’s "Opportunities for Chemicals and Materials" conferences are unique in their focus on the chemicals and materials industries. Space is limited, so register now! For more information or to register for the conference, please visit CDMAonline.org or go to this link http://pdma.org/
