As construction teams across British Columbia face increasing delivery complexity, tighter labour conditions, and rising expectations around productivity and performance, Future of Work 2026 returns with a program designed to equip leaders with practical insight they can apply on active projects.

Hosted by Pitt Meadows Plumbing & Mechanical Systems at its Shop XL facility in Maple Ridge, Future of Work 2026 takes place April 23 and 24, 2026 and brings together owners, general contractors, and specialty trade leadership for two days of keynotes and industry discussions under the theme Powered by People, Driven by Technology. This year marks Revizto’s first year as Title Sponsor.

In addition to this year’s sponsor group, Future of Work 2026 is supported by leading general contractors in the region, including EllisDon, ETRO, Graham Construction, Kinetic, and Turner Construction.
