This form is to collect presentation proposals for Getting to Zero Tech Forum 2026 on September 23 at The Old Post Office in Chicago, IL. The lineup will be announced on August 26. Final presentation materials will be due by September 4.

Presentation Content: As a Getting to Zero Tech Forum presenting sponsor you get 5 minutes to present the latest innovations in building technology accelerating sustainable and regenerative design, construction, and operations. Presentations should focus on the latest innovations advancing a built environment of net positive systems of water and energy, of financial tools and opportunities, or of ecological and human health. Focusing on what’s innovative and how it’s applicable to real world challenges that our audience faces in their projects is preferred to simple product overviews.
