Call For Abstracts

Thank you for Your Submission

Your abstract for the 2027 ABAA & RAiNA Joint Conference has been successfully submitted.

Thank you for taking the time to share your expertise with us. We appreciate your interest in contributing to the conference and helping deliver a high-quality educational program for the building enclosure industry.

What Happens Next?

The Conference Planning Committee will review all submitted abstracts, evaluating each proposal based on its educational value, technical merit, relevance, and overall fit within the conference program. Presenters must be recognized industry experts and are expected to deliver unbiased, educational content in a classroom-style setting. Submissions that promote a specific product, company, or service will not be considered.

Presenters will be notified of final decisions by the second week of December 2026. Each presenter (up to two session submissions allowed) will receive a complimentary conference pass, which includes access to all educational sessions, the exhibit hall, and the Board Meet & Greet.

If your abstract is accepted, you will be required to submit your completed presentation by April 16, 2027. The Conference Committee will review your materials and provide any feedback at that time.

Please note that travel and hotel expenses are not reimbursed.
