The In-Building Wireless Association
A regionalized grass roots forum whose mission is to educate and connect large commercial real estate verticals (including Government/Education, REIT, Healthcare, Hospitality, Stadiums/Arenas, and Edge Data Centers) with the Wireless Industry and related converged technologies including: DAS, WiFi, PLTE (CBRS), First Responder Access/Priority, Internet of Things (IOT), Building Automation, Smart Buildings, and Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging, and Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) Program.
A professional, neutral, relaxed space to learn, ask questions, and network with the diverse functional groups clustered around and tethered to in-building wireless connectivity.
An association that encourages incubation of the next generation of real estate and wireless professionals; a workforce who understands that the future is one of convergence between real estate and wireless as the “5th Utility”.
