<p style="font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><b>Description:</b> How important is building simulation to the local architecture and engineering community here in Boise, Idaho? How many firms use simulation, how many projects utilize
its predictive powers for LEED or design, and what software programs are popular these days? In 2013, the UI-IDL conducted a market assessment on building simulation that will answer these types of questions while benchmarking their progress throughout the
future. Join us for the first BSUG meeting in 2014, where we will present the findings from the market assessment while forecasting what’s on the books for BSUG in 2014. Participants will also have a chance to provide feedback on topic ideas and meeting times.</p>
