Innovative Housing Showcase Returns to National Mall
The Innovative Housing Showcase — demonstrating the latest in building technologies and processes, featuring full-sized homes, products and more — will take place this weekend, June 9-11, on the National Mall.
Innovations that drive affordability are top of mind for today’s consumers. A record number of more than 50 exhibitors — including NAHB members Connect Homes, ReMo Homes and the Structural Building Components Association — will highlight various innovative solutions to help address the housing affordability crisis and expand home builders’ abilities to produce safe, efficient homes for the U.S. housing market.
“The National Association of Home Builders is honored to once again be hosting this incredible event with the Department of Housing and Urban Development,” stated NAHB Chairman Alicia Huey. “In an industry that is often seen as slow to innovate, this is a key opportunity to show that home builders are an active part of the solution to the housing affordability crisis. We are pleased to highlight so many companies that are leaders in their field … and have some pretty cool things to showcase.”
The opening day will kick off at 9 a.m. with remarks from HUD Secretary Fudge and other notable guests. The event is open to the public and free to attend.
In conjunction with the Innovative Housing Showcase, HUD will also be hosting an offsite construction summit from 12-5 p.m. on Friday, June 9. The first panel focuses on off-site construction challenges and opportunities and will feature NAHB members representing Champion Homes, Impresa Modular and Volumetric Building Companies. The summit, including this panel, is available via livestream.
