The Green Building Focus Conference & Expo is a building industry event held twice at the Birmingham-Jefferson Convention Complex in 2009 and planned as an annual event. It is organized by Green Building Focus, an advocacy group founded by James Smith, based in Birmingham, and producing similar conferences around the world.
The conference and expo, which attracts 1,000 to 1,500 attendees, covers topics relating to "green" building and sustainable design and construction.
