The BX "Idea Exchange" Groups

The BX "Idea Exchange" Groups are an informal approach to meeting BX members. They were created to simply bring small groups of members together in an informal setting to:

  • Exchange Ideas
  • View New Issues
  • Network

At the end of each year, all participating Groups meet in an Industry Roundtable presentation to summarize and discuss prevalent issues raised in individual meetings and meet other members participating in the I-X Groups.


Group Structure and Summary:

  • Each Group is composed of 20 to 25 individuals who are committed to attend and actively participate in the program.

  • Groups typically meet for about an hour-and-a-half, on a regular basis throughout a two-year term, to discuss all aspects of the commercial construction industry.

  • Each I-X Group consists of a "core" group composed of individuals including an architect, engineer, general contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, attorneys, accountants and industry-related representatives.

  • Discussion topics are established and scheduled by each group at the very first meeting and Group members should volunteer to "introduce" topics.

  • Group meeting times for the year are scheduled at first meeting of that new year.

  • Location of meetings for the year are established at first meeting of that year. Participants should volunteer to host a meeting at their location. If a location is not available among group members, the BX may be used as a possible location between the hours of 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. if room is available.

  • A BX staff representative will attend all group gatherings for a better understanding and response to industry issues.
