Short\, focused presentations by practitioners will highlight critical topics\, innovations\, and on-the-ground experiences to set the stage for more in depth discussion. Participants will then engage in breakout sessions centered on key sustainability issues — the specific focus of these breakouts will ultimately be defined by the attendees\, but at a high level topics are anticipated to include policy and legislation\, energy innovations\, the AIA Materials Pledge\, and resilience imperatives across the state. Each group will identify strategic priorities and actionable recommendations before sharing insights with the broader audience. The day concludes with a collective synthesis session\, where themes are refined and distilled into a focused set of priorities to guide our shared work in the coming year. \n\n\n\n\n\nDraft Agenda for the day: \n8:30-9:00am: Arrival/check in & networking 9:00-9:30am: Opening keynote 9:30-9:50: Three 5-minute presentations by practitioners 9:50-10:15: Define 3-5 subtopics for breakouts/bio break/networking break 10:15-11:15: Breakout discussion sessions 11:15-11:45: Report out12:00-1:00: Lunch 1:00-1:30: Three 5-minute presentations by practitioners 1:30-1:45: Define 3-5 subtopics for breakouts 1:45-2:45: Breakout discussions 2:45-3:15: Report out3:15-4:00: Closing session – review priorities established during breakouts and confirm COTE priorities moving forward 2026-2027 \nLocationLost Office Collaborative5000 Old Main StreetHenrico\, VA 23231 \nTicketsAIA Member: $85Assoc.
