SFE NA 2026 NYC Forum: Facades x Economics: A Panel & Happy Hour

The Society of Facade Engineering North America Hub is pleased to invite you to our annual NYC Forum: Facades x Economics.
How can we as designers and engineers collaborate with owners, developers, and contractors to navigate building facades as global and local economies shift? At SFE NA's 2026 NYC Forum, prominent facade designers, construction experts, and industry players will discuss challenges and opportunities arising as the economy shifts unpredictably. By looking to the past and the future, panelists will touch upon lessons learned and share navigation of pain points.
This will be a highly interactive event as attendees are encouraged to provide their perspective on how facade designers and engineers can embrace change in designing facades with limitations influenced by global economics, including sourcing locally or internationally.
The conclusion of the panel discussion will feature a note from our sponsors and a happy hour.

Info: Please arrive and check in on the first floor. You will receive a name tag upon check in. Refreshments will be available for attendees. Refreshments will be paused during the panel out of respect for our speakers, so be sure to come on time for a pick-me-up prior to the main event!

Info: Panelists will present their perspectives prior to participating in the moderated panel. The audience will have the opportunity to submit their questions for a brief Q&A.

Info: This event would not be possible without our generous sponsors, including our host Thornton Tomasetti. We will hear from our sponsors between the conclusion of the panel and the beginning of our networking happy hour.
