Knowledge Exchange Table
CSI will be selecting 40 Building Product Manufacturer companies and
approximately 45 specifiers to attend the February 2023 Master Specifiers
Retreat. This is your opportunity to meet face-to-face with 13-16 Specifiers
and Product Selection Influencers in private one-on-one meetings over
2 days.
-
Architects and Specifiers apply to attend, and you help choose who is invited. Then
when the top ranked applicants are invited, you get to rank them again to
indicate who you want to meet with, and the Architects and Specifiers do the same,
and meeting schedules are created based on that feedback. -
Here’s a list of firms that have been represented at our last few MSR events.
-
You receive 13 to 16 dedicated 30-minute meetings based on your matches

The small event size (115-125 guests) ensures that you will meet every
