October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month, so our special guest is online "security fanatic" Nick Espinosa, the Mechanical Contractors Association of America's go-to consultant and a member of the Forbes Technology Council. A sought-after speaker across multiple industries, Nick is a prolific podcaster and social media thought leader focused 24/7 on business vulnerabilities and how to reduce growing cyber risks, both at work and at home. Oh, and if you think your engineering firm has nothing to worry about, you are almost certainly wrong, he says.

This month, ASHRAE's pandemic point man takes us behind the scenes for a fascinating look at the last 18 months of urgent collaboration, research, recommendations, and now hope, all fueled by a global public health emergency that is still ongoing. 

In our new podcast, columnist Larry Clark interviews Virginia Tech engineering Prof. Linsey Marr about her extraordinary year in the COVID spotlight as one of our industry's most quoted (and respected) experts on indoor air quality.

In our latest episode, the Carrier alum who co-founded USGBC and helped to launch both LEED and WELL Certification now tells us how "engineers are at the center of the storm" in the post-pandemic race to make buildings healthier.

In our latest podcast, AMCA's Mike Ivanovich and Aaron Gunzner discuss the global group's challenging journey through the pandemic and the profound changes that will now shape the future of air movement and control in the built environment.

In our latest podcast, ABMA President Scott Lynch talks about the many challenges his group has faced in the last year and the shifting strategies that so far have managed to succeed.

For our second podcast, HPAC Engineering's Rob McManamy chats with ASHRAE President Chuck Gulledge, to discuss the international engineering group's extraordinary year of digital transformation during an all-encompassing crisis.

Incredibly, even before 2020, Gulledge had already chosen the "Digital Lighthouse" as the theme of his presidency. Little did he know that we would ALL be living that concept remotely for most of last year and into the foreseeable future. Here, Gulledge reviews how his 53,000-member professional organization and its 198 chapters worldwide pivoted to a new, virtual reality, while opening a new headquarters outside Atlanta, and amassing its expertise to advise governments everywhere on the indoor air quality risks and recommended remedies for operating buildings safely during this once-per-century pandemic.
