Create an Online Community Before the Conference

Join the Facebook NAHB Custom Builder Symposium + Design Institute community. Start the discussion early on Facebook. You can connect with fellow attendees and presenters in dialogue about topics and current events about design, building techniques, business mangement principles and home technology integration. It's also a great way to create your own communities with Custom Builder Symposium + Design Institute attendees that have similar interests. It's a networking opportunity that's worth the price of registration in and of itself!
