Each chapter hosts 10 to 12 events per year which includes service projects, fundraisers, special dinner events, educational seminars, clay shoots, luncheons, happy hours, and two annual golf tournaments (including The Annual Invitational held each fall).

    As a brand new member in 2023, I can say that it would be a huge mistake if you were not apart of this organization in some way. The partnerships, networking and long lasting relationships are being "BUILT" in so many different ways across many unique activities and experiences. This organization is one of the most welcoming, no pressure groups I think you will run across out there, hands down.

    The true value of this organization lies within the authentic culture developed by the members of the BUILT Community. There is nothing more empowering than your client raving about their experience and connections made amongst their peers at a BUILT event.

    BUILT is our top-performing networking investment every year. Being part of a laser-focused networking group committed to the built environment is a major enhancement to our lead generation ability.

  • Mike Iosue
    In over a decade of Business Development in this industry there is nothing I have done, no organization I have joined, event I have attended, sales strategy I’ve deployed.…. and there’s not even a close second…..that created the results that have come from immersing myself in BUILT. The friendships, the experiences, AND the business growth! As with anything, you get out what you put in, but this group takes it to a whole new level because every single member is only concerned with WHAT THEY PUT IN!!! It’s a totally different concept from what everyone else is doing. Love my BUILT Family!

    In 2013 (20 years too late), I uncovered a bunch of guys and gals [members of Georgia BUILT] who were 100% unselfish in connectivity and truly looked out for each other in every way, contributing to the business success of the team and asking nothing in return. I have counseled with several business coaches, and their opinion of what Georgia BUILT has become is nothing less than truly brilliant. Georgia BUILT is, without a doubt, the most career-rewarding endeavor I have ever engaged in.

  • Lane Cutter
    BUILT National and Colorado BUILT have afforded me the opportunity to meet colleagues I would not have likely been connected with prior. Meeting other Developers to share information, fact check, and compare market notes gives me the confidence and knowledge to make informed decisions. Additionally, vendors have provided new options and products that have already proven valuable to the projects we are developing. Beyond the professional advantages of BUILT, I consider many members my good friends. We enjoy each other's company at multiple events without the hard core sales pressure. Very refreshing and often very needed in today's work environment.
