Where Owners, Designers, Contractors, and Insurers Solve Mass Timber & Bio-Based Delivery Challenges
Most conversations around mass timber and bio-based construction focus on market growth, sustainability targets, and future potential.
This summit focuses on project delivery.
The cancelled Advancing Mass Timber & Bio-Based Construction Materials was specifically designed for professionals who need practical answers to real project challenges. Through detailed case studies, lessons learned, and implementation-focused discussions, you would have heard directly from the teams successfully delivering projects today.
As the industry evolves, so does this event. Beyond mass timber, the program would have explored a wide range of bio-based materials and investigated the areas where they optimize value, where challenges reside, and the strategies for successful integration into live projects.
Most importantly, this summit would have brought together the entire delivery ecosystem. This is a unique platform where attendees would have heard the perspectives, priorities, and challenges of every stakeholder involved in mass timber and bio-based construction value chain.
I’ve found the Hanson Wade Advancing Mass Timber conference to be incredibly valuable—it brings together exactly the right mix of people who are actively working to move the industry forward. The conversations are candid, practical, and grounded in real project experience, and the caliber of both speakers and attendees is consistently high. I consider it a “can’t miss” conference.
Attending this conference is invaluable for connecting with industry leaders who are advancing mass timber and bio-based materials, while gaining practical insights from a revamped agenda focused on reducing embodied carbon and accelerating decarbonization across the built environment. The event also provides direct access to innovative vendors, emerging technologies, and proven solutions that I can bring back to clients to help them achieve their sustainability, resilience, and business performance goals.
Loved connecting with fellow mass timber enthusiasts and spending two days packed with learning and insights.

Why This Event Is Different
Practical Project Delivery Focus
This isn’t a conference about why mass timber and bio-based materials matter. This is about how to successfully use them. Every session is designed around implementation, project experience, and actionable lessons learned.
Beyond Mass Timber
While mass timber remains central, this is an exclusive platform dedicated to exploring the practical use of a wider range of bio-based construction materials. Learn where these materials create value, how they perform in practice, and the lessons project teams have learned along the way.
The Entire Ecosystem in One Room
Owners, developers, designers, contractors, insurers, risk specialists, manufacturers, and solution providers all play a role in project success. Beyond the content, the summit delivers 8+ hours of structured and open networking, giving you the opportunity to connect with the entire value chain.
