The @Be2Awards – for the best users of social tools in construction – Nominate Now!

Nominations close tomorrow (18th January) so have a think about who has used the internet and web 2.0 in the built environment over the last year to good effect and put your suggestions to the dedicated website for the Be2 Awards.

The Be2 Awards are the brainchild of Be2camp, a collective of built environment practitioners and web 2.0 techy types who get together and share experiences, ideas and projects at ‘unconferences’. The combination of people from at least two separate sectors and their collaborative attitude has made be2camp a huge success, so much so that they have run fifteen events and are launching these awards just two years after they were founded by four people on three continents.

The awards will be presented on 9th February at the Building Centre in London at an afternoon event, ConstrucTALKs, a type of TED-X event featuring a series of thought provoking talks by industry speakers, well worth putting in your diary.
