SiteNews partners with EllisDon for SiteSummit event

We are going big with a conference that bucks the traditional conference trends.

After years building out the foundational of in-person event capabilities, SiteNews is announcing its most ambitous networking and professional development opportunity yet: SiteSummit.

The two-day conference aims to breathe new life into the typical industry event format with a scenic venue, creative networking opportunities and targeting panel sessions.

The event will take place May 26-27 at North Vancouver’s Pologyon Gallery. It stands as a striking architectural landmark at the foot of Lonsdale Avenue, bridging the city’s industrial past with its cultural future. Designed by renowned local architects Patkau Architects, the 25,000 square foot building features a modern, open-concept design with a focus on sustainability and natural light.

In addition to carefully curated learning opportunities, SiteSummit will feature dynamic networking, including a Beer Crawl that explores the local breweries along Metro Vancouver’s North Shore.

SiteNews staff noted that over the past five years, a community of cutting-edge leaders have emerged from its various competitions: 40 Under 40, Construction’s Most Influential and Top 25 Innovators. They stated that SiteSummit is one more way to further connect these networks of construction professionals.

We have all been to countless industry events and have become familiar with the usual venues, predictable topics and lack of time to make connections. We want to rethinking the typical construction event, ensuring that your time isn’t wasted and can extract as much value as possible.
