Mass timber is driving a significant shift in how we build. It’s renewable, low in carbon, efficient to build with, and it looks and even smells great. It’s becoming a truly disruptive force in the construction industry.  

So why aren’t more building projects using mass timber? How Cn we overcome the biggest obstacles to accelerating the use of mass timber globally? 

In this episode, we get the inside running from last week’s International Mass Timber Conference in Portland, Oregon, the largest gathering of mass timber experts in the world, focusing on the entire industry supply chain. 

Our guests:  

Stewart Germain, Skanska USA Commercial Development’s Innovation and Sustainability Director 

Erica Spiritos, mass timber specialist and Director of the Washington Mass Timber Accelerator, who is working to grow mass timber regional ecosystems.
