Why Should You Be A Part of IGI?

The Industrial Grade Innovation Conference and Expo (IGI) is a brand-new event that gives technology firms and innovation entrepreneurs an unprecedented opportunity: to introduce their products and services to senior executives in the industrial construction industry, one of the fastest growing sectors of the U.S. economy.

The Problem

Thanks to a booming economy, an aging workforce and the ongoing American energy renaissance, demand for industrial construction services is skyrocketing.  Sounds good but...

• Construction Productivity is down - due in large part to the industry's failure to adopt new innovation and technology.
• Many firms and labor unions are experiencing significant labor supply shortages as baby boomers retire, and experts say the problem will only get worse.
• Recruitment of a new generation of both labor and management personnel in the industrial construction sector has been insufficient.

The Solution

You!  Your company's products and services can help revolutionize the industrial construction sector and usher in a new wave of safety, productivity and efficiency.  Technology can improve contractors' bottom lines, increase their competitiveness and offset the challenges associated with a tight labor supply.
