ABOUT THE SPRING SOCIAL

Unlocking the Benefits of Strategic Communications During Public Projects
At a time when building and infrastructure funding has regained traction at many levels of government, contractor teams are also expected to manage the reputation risks that have emerged in an era of social media and hyper-partisan politics, Todd Rapp and Sean Oyaas of Rapp Strategies will join us to discuss why community outreach and public engagement have become defining characteristics of successful public construction projects, and increasingly are a primary reason why teams get selected.

Rapp Strategies is a public affairs firm that has supported communications during approval and construction phases for over $15 billion in public and public/private projects over the last two decades. The Minnesota Builders Exchange appreciates Rapp Strategies’ partnership to support our members continued successes.
