JBKnowledge’s Top 5 Favorite Construction Tech Events
JBKnowledge’s Top 5 Favorite Construction Tech Events
It is no surprise that we here at JBKnowledge are obsessed with technology. When we are not spending our time developing technology, we are spending our time learning as much as possible about technology. Every year, members of JBKnowledge travel across the globe to exhibit and speak at construction tech events and conferences. From our travels, we have compiled a list of our top five favorite construction tech events!
CONEXPO-CON-AGG is a massive conference for construction professionals that only occurs once every three years in Las Vegas, Nevada. Construction professionals from all over the globe gather to discover the latest trends and developments in construction. The week long CONEXPO-CON/AGG conference is known for its huge audience, interactive booths, and learning seminars. This past year at the 2017 CONEXPO-CON/AGG, JBKnowledge exhibited booths for SmartBid and SmartInsight, hosted tech talks to crowds of hundreds, and broadcasted live episodes of the ConTechTrio podcast! Be sure to stay on the lookout for information regarding the next CONEXPO-CON/AGG conference that is to take place in 2020!
AGC is a trade association for general contractors. AGC has multiple chapters all across the United States that host tech days! These tech days are a great opportunity for general contractors to network with one another and to attend learning sessions about the latest developments, and strategies for implementing construction technology. JBKnowledge will be exhibiting at the AGC Georgia Technology Day in Atlanta, Georgia on April 26th, 2017! At the event, we will be showcasing our products; SmartBid for commercial contractors, SmartInsight for sub-contractors, and SmartCompliance for certificate of insurance, contract, and vendor compliance.

Intern Bio
My name is Leann Taylor and I am currently a Senior in the Mays Business School at Texas A&M beginning my third semester as a marketing intern with JBKnowledge! Throughout the past year with JBKnowledge I have learned more than I ever thought possible about technology and business. Although graduation is near and my time as a JBKnowledge intern is coming to a close, the skills I have learned while at JBKnowledge will forever be applicable to my future career endeavors!
