The Buildings Show provides an unforgettable experience as North America’s largest event for products, services, educational programming and professional networking. We are proud to host this spectacular event for the design, architecture, construction and real estate communities for the past 30 years.

New for 2019, we introduce our PropTech expo, Buildings Connect, in the North Building along with HomeBuilder & Renovator Expo and the World of Concrete Pavilion. Buildings Connect will be a gathering of great minds for a dynamic showcase of innovative technology directly impacting people, places, properties, portfolios, energy use and operational efficiencies within the built environment.

The Financial Management for Architects course is for professionals in the architecture industry who want to learn how to improve and efficiently manage their firm’s finances and profitability, make sound financial decisions and achieve their business goals. This includes owners, managers, architects, intern architects, engineers and designers.

This two-day course will lay a framework for understanding the financial and accounting operations, processes and concepts, needed to run and lead a sustainable architecture business.

Meticulously designed to address how professional design offices make their money, the course will teach participants how to read the numbers and understand financial management terms, strategies, and reports. Step-by-step, the course will guide participants into the comfort zone of actions and processes such as analysis, budgeting, setting billing rates, and integrating finance with other areas of the business.
