The Research Facilities Forum

September 19-21, 2010 * Westin Stonebriar Resort † Dallas, TX

The Research Facilities Forum is a private, invitation only event designed exclusively for senior-level professionals from research institutions and companies across the nation. The forum is specifically geared towards those who are responsible for determining the facility needs within their respective organizations. Flexibility to accommodate the changing nature of multi-disciplinary research, combined with the demand for more space and security concerns, have made the construction and operations of laboratories very challenging. The Research Facilities Forum will equip senior executives with the tools necessary to adapt to this ever-evolving environment and maintain a competitive edge in the marketplace.

The Research Facilities Forum is a meeting ground for leaders in strategy and innovation. Invited delegates include VP's, Directors, Department Heads and Group Leaders of Facilities Design, Construction and Operations who come together for interactive discussions and to form strategies that move their organizations forward in this highly competitive marketplace.

The forum will explore the strategic challenges and opportunities driving researchers to ever-higher levels of innovation, efficiency and cost effectiveness in developing and managing their facilities.
