May 10, 2021 @ 4:00 pm - May 14, 2021 @ 7:00 pm

IW2021 highlights the history & present state of infrastructure, its many components, and the role we all play; together. #buildfortomorrow

Infrastructure Week returns to Seattle !

IW is an opportunity to engage infrastructure professionals and learn more about the urban process of Modernity. We share projects, initiatives, and careers to encourage dialogue surrounding the challenges of urbanization, focused on collaborative pathways for Seattle’s infrastructure evolution.

ɪnfrəstrʌktʃə: the basic physical and organizational structures & facilities needed for the operation of a society or enterprise.

Our 3rd annual event series highlights infrastructure lessons learned…

The challenges of last year are unique to us all. Throughout this epidemic, our essential workforce has been a commonality in keeping us connected, moving, and sustained. At #IW2021, we will be sharing their stories, the criticality of resilient infrastructure, and how engaged communities have created future-proof solutions.

It’s time we learn from the past and build for tomorrow! For community, with environment, towards an equitable future.

IW is a community-facing forum to connect with infrastructure professionals!
