About Our Sponsor
This event is organized in partnership with AEC, otherwise called Archipelago.
AEC (Architecture, Engineering & Construction) is a professional community that connects architects, engineers, builders, designers, and industry innovators across the built environment. Through events, knowledge sharing, and networking opportunities, AEC creates a platform for professionals to exchange ideas, explore emerging technologies, and build meaningful relationships within the industry. With a growing international membership, AEC brings together forward-thinking professionals who are shaping the future of design, construction, and development. Their events foster collaboration between disciplines and provide a space for industry leaders and emerging voices to connect, learn, and inspire one another.
Brian Liu, CoFounder of AEC
Brian Liu is a civil engineer and the founder of Archipelago. He began his career in Toronto in 2008, later moving to Squamish, BC, where he worked on land development projects during a major growth phase. His work focused on designing community infrastructure—literally helping shape the towns we live in.

“Archipelago is about lowering the friction between good ideas and good teams. We’re here to help the AEC industry work more like a network than a silo.”
Archipelago started as a response to inefficiencies he saw in the AEC industry—where too many firms work in isolation, solving the same problems over and over. His vision: a space where firms can share knowledge, connect more easily, and build the future of infrastructure together.
