4th Annual Home Performance Conference of Oregon
On Wednesday, October 14th, 2015 the Home Performance Guild of Oregon will proudly host the 4th Annual Home Performance Conference of Oregon at the Ambridge Event Center, centrally located in the Rose Quarter in Portland.
Each year we focus our plenary session on an important topic that has grabbed the attention of our industry and demands deeper exploration. This year that topic is the: INTERSECTIONS OF HEALTH AND HOME PERFORMANCE
We're bringing together healthy home experts, home performance professionals, innovative efficiency programs, and trailblazing policymakers to collaborate on a shared vision and strategy to ensure that every home performance intervention has a healthy, safe and energy efficient outcome. We'll also be bringing in leading sales and technical experts to equip Home Performance industry professionals with material information to apply to their businesses today.
Join us for a host of informative presentations and interactive sessions that explore how we can apply the lessons of the Healthy Homes sector to the benefit of home performance customers, as well as the broader efficiency and health sectors.
PLENARY AGENDA:
