There’s a Better Way to Build
Once upon a time, design-build was considered an “alter-native” way to deliver construction projects. Not anymore. These days, nearly half of the nation’s construction dollars are spent on design-build projects.
Design-build saves time and money by encouraging inno-vation and collaboration, delivering some of the nation’s most impressive projects of all types and sizes, and
across every sector. It’s no surprise that design-build is the fastest growing and most popular method used to deliver construction projects in America. But we didn’t get here by accident.
The Design-Build Institute of America is committed to building and maintain-ing the important relationships which fuel the collaboration central to all good design-build projects. We are at an important place in our history and the DBIA community is engaged, innovative and eager to make these connections through our online communities, digital magazine, DBIA podcast and at annual conferences.
We look forward to helping you connect with the design-build industry, to tell your story and help us transform our industry.

Our AudienceWe’re Rebels, Dreamers and Doers.
Design-builders are unique. They’ve embraced the “alternative” and are now making it the norm. Not only is DBIA’s audience the most diverse in our industry, including all members of the design and construction industry, it also covers a broad cross-section of highly-valued age, education and income demographics.
A job isn’t just a job. It’s who you are.
Not surprisingly, most of our audience works in the design and construction industry (8x the national online average) but a large number of our online users come from government (7x), education (6x), legal and business (5x). They represent all types of organizations.
The majority say they’re politically engaged, and their media habits are definitely eclectic.

The annual Design-Build Conference & Expo in the fall caters to the entire design-build universe. Both conferences have seen incredible growth as the design-build industry continues to increase its market share.
4,000 Design-Build Conference attendees + Online audience
The Design-Build Conference show guides are the most highly-read content distributed to each DBIA conference attendee. They are considered the confer-ence road-map for thousands of design-builders.
DIGITAL CONFERENCE SHOW GUIDEWe also offer DBIA Conference show guide spon-sors the opportunity to boost their reach with a Digital Conference show guide. This guide is posted on the dbia.org website in advance of the conference and shared with attendees via email to give them a pre-view of what’s ahead. It’s also available to the broader DBIA online audience. This digital guide offers adver-tisers an extended window, reaching an even wider audience and boosting your investment.
DBIA Conference App
We supplement our comprehensive Conference show guides with the DBIA Conferences App. Attendees can access a list of sessions, speakers, exhibitors and sponsors in addition to important event maps from the palm of their hand. App sponsors have a variety of branding options available to keep your message in front of DBIA conference attendees throughout the event.
