About The Summit

The National Infrastructure Renewal Summit (NIRS) is private leadership summit, created to bring together senior public works administrators to achieve two major objectives – advance their industry knowledge and network with their peers all in a casual, face-to-face setting. America’s infrastructure is failing. This is the time for local officials to focus on it and learn about new engineering technologies to maintain and rebuild America’s infrastructure.
