Description

The life science community is undergoing a period of rapid change. With new technologies, scientific processes, and therapeutic targets discovered seemingly every day, it’s no wonder that during a construction project’s average 3-year cycle, changes are constantly being introduced, having knock on effects for project schedule, cost, and quality.

The 2nd Annual Advancing Life Science Construction returns to unite the AEC community once again in June 2024 to future-proof your life science projects by ensuring you have the tools, strategies, and capabilities to optimize your project delivery from inception to closeout.

Join our Pre-Conference Digital Delivery Workshop Day delivered by Bryden Wood, Arcadis, DPR Construction and CRB to understand how AI is affecting the industry, explore effective implementation of cutting-edge technologies in both the design & construction phase, and do a deep dive into the facility data handover to the client at project closeout, ensuring satisfaction and making rework easier than ever.

All this before our 2 full days of unearthing evolving market trends and owner portfolio priorities, designing and constructing spec builds, navigating supply chain issues, exploring advances in prefab and much more! Join us and get to grips with the best practices for enhancing adaptability, sustainability and resiliency of your life science projects.

Gain the knowledge you need to differentiate your project team and make your firm the standout option for clients who prioritize excellence in 2024 and beyond.

Partner Voices
MGM Resorts is committed to fostering an inclusive and diverse culture, not just among employees and guests but also within its supply chain. The company prioritizes procuring goods and services from businesses owned by minorities, women, veterans, people with disabilities, LGBTQ individuals and those facing economic disadvantages. This commitment is integral to MGM Resorts' global procurement strategy.    Through its voluntary supplier diversity program, MGM Resorts actively identifies and connects certified diverse-owned suppliers to opportunities within its supply chain. The company is on track to spend at least 15% of its biddable procurement with diverse-owned businesses by 2025, demonstrating that supplier diversity is not only a social responsibility but also a strategic business imperative.    Supplier diversity isn’t just the right thing to do – it’s good for business. A diverse supply chain allows access to a broader range of perspectives and experience, helping to drive innovation, entrepreneurship and resilience, while strengthening communities. At MGM Resorts, engaging diverse suppliers ensures best-in-class experiences for guests and clients. Supplier diversity ensures a more resilient supply chain while supporting economic development in the communities in which it operates.   The impact of MGM Resorts' supplier diversity initiatives is significant. In 2023, these efforts supported over 3,500 jobs across more than 30 states, contributed over $214 million in income for diverse-owned businesses and generated more than $62 million in tax revenue. The story extends beyond the numbers – it reflects the tangible benefits brought to small and diverse-owned businesses, fostering economic empowerment in their communities.    MGM Resorts also supports the development and business skills of diverse-owned businesses through investment, mentorship and education. Through the MGM Resorts Supplier Diversity Mentorship Program, the company identifies, mentors and develops diverse-owned businesses to fill its future pipeline, while providing businesses with tools and resources to empower and uplift. Since 2017, the program has successfully graduated 105 diverse-owned businesses and is on track to achieve its goal of 150 graduates by 2025.     MGM Resorts’ commitment to supplier diversity not only enhances its business operations but also plays a crucial role in uplifting communities and fostering economic development. This approach reinforces the idea that diversity is a powerful driver of innovation and resilience, benefiting both the company and the wider community.
