- Advocating for Natural Stone and Global Initiatives in North America: A Perspective from the Natural Stone Institute
Join Natural Stone Institute Board President Michael Picco and CEO Jim Hieb as they discuss the North American marketplace and several key initiatives important to the global stone community: sustainability, creation of a uniform international natural stone standard through the International Standards Organization (ISO) and reaching architects and designers. This session will expand your knowledge about industry initiatives led by the Natural Stone Institute and how you can get involved.
The Natural Stone Institute is proud to once again serve as a supporting association for Middle East Stone, which takes place during the Big 5 Show.
