Science drivers. Economic drivers. Program drivers. On all fronts, the strategies, standards and planning models for academic research buildings are changing radically. The way research is being done is changing. The sophistication and cost of research tools in increasing. The diversity and complexity of research programs is growing. And the financial stakes are becoming ever higher.
Before you start planning, or even thinking about, a new lab building, lab building expansion, or interior renovation, attend this conference to learn what the new standards and planning models are, what people are paying to achieve them, and how to avoid building the wrong building. Specifically, you’ll learn the facilities implications of these critical, program-defining issues:
Get ahead of these issues! They are the 2004-2005 planning issues that will be making or breaking the financial success of research programs and the reputations of the institutions where successful, fully-funded research programs are supposed to happen.
You and members of your group should be at this conference! Attend as a group (along with your key operations people who will have the responsibility of running what you build) to make this conference an integral part of your 2004-2005 planning agenda.
I look forward to seeing you in Hilton Head!
