- Your most successful design innovation initiatives 
- Your thoughts on the top drivers of design innovation 
- How your firm encourages innovation on design projects 
- Which building sectors are most in need of innovation 
- Promising companies/startups that support AEC innovation

All survey participants who provide their contact information will be sent a link to download a PDF report with the complete findings.
