Coming on the heels of a tremendously popular and successful 7th annual awards banquet, the USGBC Maryland Chapter is preparing for an even bigger and better event for January 2013. We are currently soliciting interest in sponsorships for the event, to be held at the M&T Bank Stadium, a registered project under LEED for Existing Buildings Operations and Maintenance. It will be the premier event for the Maryland sustainable design and construction community. In attendance will be a who’s who of Green Building in Maryland, including some of the most highly regarded and well-respected development, design and construction professionals.
