Message From the Chair

For years you wanted specialized education. Maybe you heard about the NAHB Custom Builder Symposium but felt you could never take the time or spend the money. Now you can have the best of IBS and Symposium at one location, for one price. This coming January, please join us at the NAHB International Builders’ Show in Orlando, Florida which will offer a unique opportunity for custom builders.

With the addition of Custom Builder Symposium Central, IBS will offer more for custom builders than ever before. You’ve always been able to find great educational opportunities at IBS but in 2011 there will be more in-depth sessions created specifically for custom builders. In addition, you’ll have the opportunity to learn from and network with the country’s best custom builders.

I know that wearing so many hats as a custom builder makes it difficult to acquire the necessary level of expertise to enable the success we all seek. Time is always in short supply. You have the desire, you have the need but how do you get it all done? Each year there is only one place where you can get it all, at once, from the nation’s best. The International Builders’ Show is the single best investment you can make to provide you the tools and expertise you need to propel your dreams forward at hyper speed.

Join us at IBS 2011 for all the great education, networking and now specialized training for custom builders. I look forward to seeing you there!

J. Bradley Simons
Chairman, NAHB Custom Builder Symposium
