CSI Master Specifiers Retreat
May 11-13, 2022 | Rancho Bernardo Inn | San Diego, CA
CSI's Master Specifiers Retreat is about connecting and learning from one another. Through 1:1 meetings with trusted manufacturing advisors and breaking bread with fellow AEC professionals, you'll expand your knowledge and your network.
MSR is an exclusive hosted-buyer, three-day event for AEC professionals who write specifications and architects who make product recommendations to meet with top product reps to learn and network. Qualifying specifiers and architects who are selected attend free of charge. This includes complimentary hotel accommodations and travel reimbursement up to $500. Travel reimbursement can be used for airfare or driving to the event.
Product manufacturer representatives host the event and select specifier/architect participants. Selection criteria include:
• Company background and qualifications
• Description of current projects
• Dollar amount and type of recent specifications
• Specifications written in relationship to the companies participating (this can vary by event)
Product manufacturers are also interested in making new connections, so multiple year attendance at past MSR events may influence whether you are selected. Time in the industry, geographic proximity to the event and leadership in CSI do NOT influence selection.
