We’re a little over a month away from SBX 2025 and can’t wait to convene the industry to explore how the Pacific Northwest is not just responding to change—but actively shaping the future of the built environment. SBX 2025 will challenge participants to think beyond the status quo, offering thought-provoking conversations on where our region fits into the national and global transition toward smarter, cleaner, and more resilient buildings.
Whether you’re a building owner or operator, a policymaker, utility representative, or a service or technology provider, SBX 2025 offers the insights, connections, and inspiration you need to turn ideas into action and to reimagine the role of buildings—not just as energy users, but as dynamic assets that influence everything from grid interaction and occupant well-being to cost management, security, and building resilience.
We hope to see you on November 5th – register by October 10th to save on early-bird pricing!
