Technology Exchange Participation

GBRIA offers suppliers, engineering/design firms, contractors and related industry partners the opportunity to participate with association members through two types of Technology Exchanges. The Safety, Health & Security Technology Exchange and the Maintenance and Engineering Technology Exchange. Each exchange holds quarterly lunch meetings where expert speakers address key issues, provide the latest techniques, and share real-life learning examples. The quarterly meetings are also be a forum for discussion between industry and its suppliers as well as a way to gain updates on GBRIA committees and activities. Each exchange meeting contributes to our mission to drive and coordinate cost-effective solutions.
