Building Tennessee Together | 2026 Joint Industry Summit on Tennessee’s Built Environment

December 10, 2026
9:00 AM - 2:30 PM

Four Seasons Hotel
100 Demonbreun St
Nashville, TN 37201

Tennessee is growing, and the decisions we make today will shape how our communities, infrastructure, and economy evolve for generations to come. Meeting that challenge will take more than individual expertise. It will take an industry working together.

Join AIA Tennessee, ACEC, AGC, and SMPS Nashville for Building Tennessee Together, a cross-industry summit bringing together architects, engineers, contractors, owners, public-sector leaders, educators, and economic-development professionals to explore the opportunities and challenges shaping Tennessee's built environment.

Through featured speakers, candid State leadership conversations, and cross-industry perspectives, we'll tackle some of the most pressing questions facing our industry:

  • Growth & Infrastructure: What does Tennessee need to build next, and how do we keep pace with a rapidly changing state?
  • Resilience & Recovery: What can we learn from Hurricane Helene, and how can we build stronger, more resilient communities?
  • Workforce & Talent: Who will design and build Tennessee's future, and how do we develop the next generation of industry leaders?
  • Technology & Innovation: How are emerging technologies transforming the way we plan, design, and construct?
  • Collaboration & Delivery: What's getting in the way of progress, and how can our industries work better together to deliver meaningful results?

More than a traditional industry conference, this summit is an opportunity to step outside our individual disciplines, exchange ideas with leaders across the built environment, and build relationships that move our industry forward.

Register today and join us as we build Tennessee together.
