If you practice globally—or plan to expand your services abroad—you need a working knowledge of international practice. Success hinges on anticipating the challenges, risks, opportunities, and rewards that different countries present. That's where this full-day workshop comes in. In Architecture Abroad, expert practitioners and senior government trade officials will offer their insights to help you: • Seek quality work in global markets and obtain region-specific information. • Prepare for potential changes once work is secured. • Anticipate the impact of political systems, regulations, codes, delivery methods, and cultural/environmental factors. • Use practice aids and tools to craft project execution strategies. Each of the AIA's International Regions (Europe/Africa/Middle East, Asia Pacific, and the Americas) will be covered by experts who live and work in the zone. An optional networking lunch program is also planned. Whether you already have an established international practice or are looking to break into global markets, this workshop will help ensure your success knows no borders.
