Welcome to the newest edition of the Cornerstones newsletter. The BACnet International community benefits from information and education shared through Cornerstones, the organization's monthly electronic publication. This publication is distributed to members of the BACnet International community, connecting corporate, integrator, site, student and individual end users.

Cornerstones is a unique publication because it speaks not only to the engineer and contractor communities, but also to facility professionals, building managers and owners, and other personnel.

This is where you come in. We need you to connect! If there is a best practice, company news, product news or BACnet Success Story you want to share, please send them to us. And don't leave out the photos!

All submissions should be sent to Kathleen Magee, BACnet International's Marketing Manager.

Another Successful PlugFest

PlugFest was held October 4th - 6th at The University of New Hampshire's InterOperability Lab.

This was the second PlugFest Interoperability Event this year, with the April event in Florida being the rescheduled 2021 PlugFest. All total we had 71 attendees across both events from 37 companies.

These attendees came together to test their products in the neutral environment of PlugFest. They gained a lot of insight and networked with peers through the working sessions and social events.

Thank you to all who attended!
