AIA Entrepreneur Summit 2015: Global Practice

We talk about the global nature of architecture, yet most firms don’t choose to work in international markets. Offering services in the global marketplace exposes architects to greater competition, and also new types of risk. The keynote and panel in this course offer insights on the key trends creating challenges and opportunities in the global economy. Explore issues of international expansion such as ensuring design quality and safety, choosing practice locations, competing for international projects, and the unique expertise U.S. architects bring to global practice. You’ll also consider the influence of technology on architecture globalization, the impact of small firms, compensation, and many other topics.
