Description: DBIA-WPR LA/OC Chapter Event.  

Join DBIA-WPR LA/OC Chapter at The Beehive for an evening of connection and insight as a panel of public sector owners shares upcoming capital projects and discusses how they’re navigating a shifting funding landscape shaped by post-pandemic recovery, inflation, and federal budget changes. Strategic adaptation and reprioritization are essential, with transparency in delivery methods and financial oversight becoming increasingly critical. We’ll wrap up with a conversation on resiliency planning—driven by aging infrastructure and recent disasters—now central to long-term capital strategies and offering opportunities for AEC practitioners to support innovative solutions.
