ACI Virtual Concrete Convention

7/6/2020

The American Concrete Institute has transitioned the ACI Concrete Convention from an in-person event in Raleigh, NC, USA, October 25-29, 2020, to a 100% virtual event.

There were many factors that led to this decision, but the most important was the health and safety of convention attendees and staff.  It was clear that local, state, and federal regulations would have made hosting an in-person event practically impossible.  Furthermore, based on informal feedback from many of you, travel this fall would not be possible because of company or personal restrictions.

Review the sessions and events page to see all the attendee activities that have been confirmed for the ACI Virtual Concrete Convention.

We already have 300 confirmed committee meetings, 50+ technical sessions, and many of the other events and activities that really make ACI’s conventions stand out as the world’s gathering place for advancing concrete. A few convention events to look forward to:

• Opening Session and Keynote Speaker
• International Forum
• ACI Excellence in Concrete Construction Awards Program
• Concrete Mixer
• President’s Reception

What you need to do:

• Mark your calendar;
• Register for the ACI Virtual Concrete Convention so we know who will be joining us and can plan to have the necessary support in place. Registration fees will be $299, but substantially reduced to $49 for all ACI members and free to all ACI student members;
• If you are not an ACI member, now is an excellent time to join our community of 30,000+ members (if you are a member; thank you – please take this opportunity to ensure your membership has been renewed and is active); and
• Invite your friends and colleagues – without the expense of travel, we are hopeful more concrete professionals locally and from around the world will attend, too; and 
• If you’ve already registered/paid for the in-person event, we will contact you individually regarding a refund.

In addition to planning for the ACI Virtual Concrete Convention this October, ACI is actively making sure we have the most comprehensive and up-to-date resources on all facets of concrete technology available digitally and on-demand in response to today’s challenging environment – please visit concrete.org for more information. 

We send our wishes for your continued health and safety. 

Sincerely,

Jeffery W. Coleman, PE, FACI
