Principals Roundtable (PRT)

Each month, principals, executives and senior leaders from Atlanta architecture firms meet at the Principals Roundtable – PRT – to hear about and discuss matters of mutual interest and relevance to our business and industry.  Each meeting includes a presentation/program followed by Q&A or a moderated roundtable discussion relevant to attendees’ work and positions.  Program topics typically fall into one of six general categories:

  • Design
  • Business Trends/Best Practices
  • Architectural Education/Generational Issues
  • Local/Political Issues
  • Environmental Issues & Sustainability
  • Technology & Innovation

 

AIA members attending a PRT meeting may obtain CEU credit for qualifying topics.  Attendance is open to all AIA Atlanta principals, executives and senior leaders, allied members and their guests.  PRT meets on the 2nd Wednesday of each month at the Ansley Golf Club in midtown Atlanta.  Each meeting starts at 7:30 AM with networking and a hot breakfast buffet, followed by an hour-long program.
