Manufacturer & Specifier Collaboration Series

BC Wood will be hosting the 18th Annual Global Buyer’s Mission (GBM), September 29-30, 2021, featuring WoodTALKS, designed to enlighten, inform and inspire on the use of wood in design and construction. This accredited Live Webinar series presented by BC’s wood industry suppliers and partners will explore current Architectural projects and Manufacturing Advancements.
