7 continents. 82 speakers. 60 community partner organizations. 24 hours.

These are just some of the figures that stand out following Reimagine Buildings 24, which took place just over two weeks ago. We are still reeling not only from all that we learned over the course of those 24 hours, but from the enthusiasm, hopefulness, and overwhelming sense of agency that permeates the Passive House and high-performance building community. From beginning to end, the chat was alive with words of praise and encouragement for all the presenters.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who participated in Reimagine Buildings 24. From our amazing speakers, our hosts, and the members of the Accelerator team working tirelessly behind the scenes to bring everything together (especially Kim Davis and Cara Engh), this herculean task could not have been accomplished without all of you. We also want to thank everyone who attended, either virtually or at one of the many in-person meet-ups held around the world.

Since the Accelerator was launched almost five years ago, our goal has been to create an inclusive platform where people with disparate backgrounds can come together and collaborate on climate solutions for the built environment. We at the Accelerator walked away from the event with a renewed sense of purpose, as well as an appreciation of how much we can accomplish when we unite not only as a community, but as a planet.

Once again, thank you everyone who supported RB24.
