Why This Event Matters (More Than Ever)

From allergies to infections, poor indoor air silently affects millions, yet most buildings still don’t treat air like a health asset.

That’s changing.

This exclusive event, hosted by Knauf North America and the iAIR Institute, brings together three of the most respected voices in health and building science:

They’ll explore:

  • The silent but overlooked risks of indoor air
  • The science and technology transforming IAQ
  • What you can do – whether you’re in healthcare, design, construction, or policy

If You’re In the Room, You’re Ahead of the Curve

Expect deep conversations.
Real solutions.
And the chance to meet like-minds committed to transforming how we live and breathe.

Where: Carcara in downtown Phoenix, a space built to spark better air and better ideas.
