Anchored by the theme “Design Takes Shape,” this year’s NeoCon will provide a platform where diverse perspectives converge to foster enrichment and growth across a wide range of topics and disciplines of interest to architects, designers and facility managers (FMs). Registration is now available for the sessions, which will be held both in-person and virtually.
At NeoCon, we are dedicated to curating a diverse programming experience, providing a dynamic blend of educational courses, inspirational talks, and hands-on workshops. Our CEUs and workshops will provide access to the technical skills and exposure to fresh ideas necessary to shift paradigms and promote growth, all within a vibrant, collaborative environment ideal for learning and innovation.
