📢 Exciting Webinar Alert! 📢 On June 24th, ADL Ventures and RMI are thrilled to host a webinar on industrialized construction for high-performance affordable housing development. 🏘️ Industrialized Construction (IC) has been gaining traction as a solution to the construction industry's historic labor shortage. They are collaborating with partners at national, state, and local levels to develop strategies that bridge the gaps between supply-constrained local housing markets, cities interested in zoning and regulatory reform, and fabricators scaling production to make housing development cheaper, better, and faster.
On June 24th, ADL Ventures and our partners at RMI are thrilled to be hosting a webinar on industrialized construction for high-performance affordable housing development. IC has been gaining a lot of traction recently as a solution to the construction industry's historic labor shortage, and we're working with partners at national, state, and local levels to develop strategies to connect the dots between supply-constrained local housing markets, cities interested in zoning and regulatory reform, and fabricators scaling production to make housing development cheaper, better, and faster. We will be speaking with Jennifer Castenson, Jake Levitas, MPA, MCRP, Caleb Roope, Rick Holliday, and Bali Kumar, looking at the financing, technical elements, market landscape, and the municipal regulation of modular construction. Especially looking forward to connecting with developers interested in building with modular.
