It’s that time of year again when BGIS begins laying the groundwork for AN INSPIRED FUTURE.

Now in its 8th year, AN INSPIRED FUTURE provides a forum for decision makers like yourself to learn about opportunities to improve your organization's financial performance while reducing your respective environmental footprint and plan for the future. 

With the socially distancing restrictions in place due to COVID-19, we will once again be hosting our conference "virtually". We anticipate a much larger audience than usual, providing our sponsors with increased visibility.

We would be honoured if you joined us.  Click on the REGISTRATION tab to be directed to the registration page.

SPONSORSHIPS are also available.  Our sponsors will be provided with visibility through our social media channels and website, BEIC membership (for Title and Wind sponsors), media coverage in the BEIC Special Supplement and e-newsletter advertisements, as well as digital and verbal recognition during the event.

Sponsorship options and sponsor recognition are outlined in the event prospectus. To view the prospectus, click on the BECOME A SPONSOR tab above.  For more information, please reach out to Susan Featherstone at 416-903-4297 or [email protected].

Proceeds from this event will be provided to The Building Energy Innovators Council (BEIC), a not-for-profit industry driven council established to accelerate the collaboration, innovation and adoption of clean building technologies to support the reduction of carbon emissions and reduce the resulting effects of climate change.

We look forward to you joining us at AN INSPIRED FUTURE 2022 on February 1, 2022.
