The American Institute of Architects (AIA) announced a strategic sponsorship agreement with Trimble, a provider of construction technology and digital workflow solutions.
The agreement provides Trimble with opportunities to participate in continuing education programs, event panels, research initiatives, and industry knowledge-sharing efforts. Members of the American Institute of Architects may also access technical resources and professional development content, including guidance on the use of 3D design tools.
“United by a shared vision for the future of the built environment, we’re excited about the opportunities this relationship will shepherd,” says Andrew Flank, senior vice president of sales, events, and exhibitions at AIA. “Strategic partners help fund key initiatives, empowering AIA to provide valuable resources to members while upholding independence and mission alignment.”
AIA connects Trimble with thousands of architects worldwide, offering year-round visibility, early specification involvement, and access to industry leaders. This joint effort ensures sustained engagement, surpassing the impact of one-off event sponsorships.
“We are committed to helping architects move their digital designs from concept to reality,” says Chris Cronin, vice president and general manager of architecture, design, and education at Trimble. “Teaming up with AIA creates meaningful intersections between technology and practice, empowering architects to design with greater confidence, iterate faster, and deliver more resilient, high-impact outcomes for their clients and communities.”
