The Connecticut Building Congress creates a forum for building professionals to connect, learn, and grow. Since 1952 CBC has been Connecticut's premier organization whose mission is to provide a collaborative environment that fosters relationships and contributes to the growth and success of the construction industry.
The Connecticut Building Congress (CBC) was formed in 1952 by prominent leaders of the construction industry. See our list of prestigious CBC Past Presidents. Now, more than 60 years later, the Congress is Connecticut's premier networking organization encompassing owners, engineers, architects, attorneys, general contractors, developers, cost consultants, subcontractors, suppliers, testing laboratories, etc.
We hope you will consider joining CBC. Our monthly dinner meetings with informative speakers give you the opportunity to discuss your mutual interests and business challenges in an informal social atmosphere with other members. Our Industry Practices Committee works to propose solutions to the problems facing all of us. CBC is particularly proud of its Scholarship Fund for young people in Connecticut who wish to pursue a higher education related to the building industry.
Becoming a member of the Connecticut Building Congress means you will have access to information and people that could be vital to your business. It also means becoming part of a prestigious team-the Construction Industry team.
CBC is an active organization with representatives from every facet of the building industry-architects, engineers, owners, attorneys, bankers, contractors, developers, consultants, and suppliers-meeting monthly with keynote speakers in an informal atmosphere to discuss mutual interests, share business information and leads, and learn about events that shape our industry.

Industry Influence
CBC’s Industry Practice Committee (IPC) is a diverse group of AEC leaders who discuss industry issues to improve efficiencies and establish best practices. Reports and white papers, including the Connecticut Construction Guidelines: The Manual for Successful Building Projects, are made available to CBC members and key constituencies.
CBC, through its Member representatives, is active on the State of Connecticut Construction Services Division Industry Advisory Council (IAC). CBC serves alongside state agency leaders and related professional organizations to improve and streamline work provided by the industry on state projects. CBC Members have access to our Representatives or may be eligible to represent CBC on the IAC.
CBC’s Annual Project Team Awards program promotes and celebrates project team efforts throughout Connecticut, highlighting excellence in public and private construction projects completed over the past year.
Community Outreach
Each year, CBC awards scholarships to deserving high school seniors who represent the future of our industry. The CBC Scholarship Fund grants scholarships of up to $2,000 per year to college students studying in areas of benefit to the construction industry, including architecture, engineering, construction management, and construction technology.
Special CBC events such as the annual Robert J. LeFloch Memorial Golf Outing in the Fall help fund these scholarships.
