GROWN IN GOTHAM
Everything and Everyone You Need to Make Healthy, Carbon-Smart, Affordable and Valuable Bio-Based Buildings at Every Scale

Malt House | 461 West 126th Street, New York City
Bio-based construction is happening now—and an ecosystem is forming around it.
Materials are reaching the market. Architects, engineers, and developers are putting them to work in ambitious buildings. Research is expanding what's possible. New funding is helping projects get built. And manufacturers, policymakers, investors, builders, and advocates are creating the conditions for bio-based construction to move from exceptional projects toward everyday practice.
Grown in Gotham brings that emerging ecosystem together in one room.
Join us after Greenbuild's opening reception for an evening of projects, possibilities, food, drinks, and connection.
We'll kick things off with a fast-moving, 45-minute showcase of speakers highlighting large-scale bio-based buildings, funding opportunities available in New York, leading-edge research and design, and the launch of a new bio-based manufacturers' trade association.
Then the room opens up. Meet the people designing, financing, researching, manufacturing, approving, and building the next generation of healthy, carbon-smart buildings. We'll help make introductions, while a series of short films about bio-based projects and materials plays throughout the evening.
Come to see what's possible. Stay to meet the people who can help make the next project happen.
