      INTRODUCTION

      Welcome to I-LinCP's 2024 Lonestar Sustainability Forum: "Elemental"!

      On August 6-8, 2024, the Institute for Leadership in Capital Projects (I-LinCP) is presenting its Lone Star Sustainability Forum-Making Impact Through the Built Environment. This year's theme is "Elemental."

      One of the most exciting aspects of this Forum is the bringing together of multiple organizations including project Owners, for-profits and nonprofits, K-12’s and higher education, cities and counties and other governmental agencies, as well as architects, engineers, solution providers/vendors, and contractors to collaboratively present and discuss issues and ideas related to sustainability and resiliency, with a Texas focus.

      This event is a catalyst for public and private project Owners and stakeholders to holistically gather information and momentum as we bring the resources and vision needed to achieve the goal of zero carbon emissions from the built environment, and address site planning, water, green space and the natural environment, transportation, infrastructure, leadership, economics, equity, among other topics that come naturally out of conversation and discussion.  

      Forum Description

      Step into a sustainable future at the I-LinCP 2024 Lonestar Sustainability Forum, where we are dedicated to harnessing the power of the built environment to drive positive change. This forum is your gateway to explore, discuss, and take action on sustainability within the realms of architecture, construction, and infrastructure.

      With its theme of "Elemental," we will consider what is now "fundamental" to our understanding of how best to improve our environmental and lessen negative impacts, new ideas and technologies, and how the four classic natural elements of Earth, Air, Fire and Water can be weaved into how we think about our built environment, with a focus on public projects. 

      Join us in this gathering of professionals, do-ers, and visionaries, where collaboration, knowledge sharing, and actionable insights are paramount. Wherever you work or engage in the built-environment, a public or private Owner, designer, builder, sustainability advocate, attorney, consultant, developer, student, or an enthusiast eager to make a difference, this Forum provides an engaging platform for diverse perspectives to converge.
