The International Builders’ Show (IBS) is less than a week away and the show floor is going to have it all – products, connections and experts you won’t see anywhere else. In the middle of the hustle and bustle will be NAHB HQ, located on the first floor of the Las Vegas Convention Center’s Central Hall.

At HQ, there is something for everyone. All registrants can participate in enrichment sessions, learn about NAHB membership and network with attendees. For NAHB members, there will be an exclusive member-only area with giveaways, snacks, charging areas and more.

Here are some of the NAHB HQ highlights to expect:

Free Coffee and Donuts | Daily 8-9 a.m.

Before exploring the trade show floor, NAHB members can stop by the booth first thing in the morning for free coffee and donuts. Those who want to participate just need to show their IBS Registration with the word “Member” on it and then enjoy!

NAHB Members: Social Recharging Hour – Recharge Your Mind, Body & Phone! | Daily 12-1 p.m.

NAHB members are welcome to stop by the NAHB HQ booth to relax and recharge your devices. Attendees just need their IBS Registration with the word “Member,” and they’ll be set to network and reset before heading back out onto the show floor.

NAHB Member Happy Hour | Wednesday and Thursday 3:30-5 p.m.

On Wednesday and Thursday, we’ll host a member happy hour. Drinks are on the house and each member can bring a non-member along as a plus-one. End your busy show day with a cocktail and some mingling.

Morning Meet-Ups | Daily 10-11 a.m.

Each morning, NAHB HQ will host a meet-up. Tuesday is the Associate Member Meet-Up; Wednesday is the Student Chapters Meet-Up; and Thursday is the HBCU Meet-Up. All attendees must show their IBS Registration before their enter and get to networking.

Moderated Discussions | Daily 2-2:30 p.m.

Each afternoon, NAHB will host a moderated discussion. Wednesday’s event, for example, is with Tammie Ross, CEO and General Contractor at Residence by Ross. She will share insights from her new book, “Breaking Ground, Breaking Glass Ceilings: A Guide to Success in Male-Dominated Industries." These exciting and educational talks are open to all IBS attendees.
