Charlotte is the ideal location for a healthcare construction event, sitting at the center of one of the nation’s top markets with nearly 1,700 hospitals in the Southeast. The city’s health systems are investing over $1 billion in new hospitals, and its strong architectural community, led by AIA Charlotte, supports this growth. With nationally ranked hospitals and a vibrant mix of culture, dining, sports, and attractions, Charlotte offers both professional opportunity and an unforgettable experience.

Our advisory board represents the breadth of attendees coming from design firms, engineering firms, contractors and healthcare providers from all across North America. They work to certify the education, exhibits and networking reflect the current trends and issues facing our industry.  The board is an all volunteer group of passionate and dedicated individuals committed to making the Symposium the event for the industry. 

HFSE has a long history of selecting a charitable organization each year, holding a raffle onsite and donating the proceeds to that charitable organization. What started as a small endeavor has grown to a highlight of the annual event with diverse organizations across the country benefitting from the HFSE’s community’s generosity. Since 2006, HFSE has donated over $217k to various charitable organizations.

The HFSE team is there to help you with whatever you may need to make attending an enjoyable experience.  The team is responsible for planning and executing the event and our expertise, including event planning, marketing, logistics, and operations.  You can find them onsite very easily as they are in blue polo shirts so feel free to ask.
