/Timber Tech Connect
We're excited to announce a collaboration between TWIG, Fast + Epp, and CAWP. Together, we're hosting a series of dynamic events at Concept Lab, an innovative R&D space located within Fast + Epp's Vancouver headquarters.
Timber Tech Connect offers an up-close look at the latest innovations in timber design and the individuals driving progress in wood-based design, engineering, architecture, and construction. Through these events, our aim is to provide a platform for networking, learning, and exploring the possibilities of Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFMA) in timber construction.
We hosted the inaugural event of the timber innovation series called Timber Tech Connect, in partnership with Fast + Epp's Concept Lab and UBC CAWP. Our first event had an incredible turnout, and we greatly appreciated the conversations that emerged at our round table discussion.
Our purpose with these events is to establish a consistent series that brings together experts from various fields. As the mass timber industry continues to grow, our mission is to support individuals and firms throughout the innovation process, equipping them with the knowledge needed to excel in wood-based construction. Additionally, our goal is to inspire you by showcasing case-study timber projects from local firms and manufacturers based right here in British Columbia.
We are moving forward with a schedule of events that occur every two months starting in January 2024, with events scheduled for March, May, July, September and November. Some of the potential topics that emerged from the event that we will seek to include in our programming are:
If you want to be a speaker at one of these events and have a valuable topic that you feel needs to be shared please reach out to us. Stay tuned for our next posting in December to register for our next event.
