Ellerbe Becket has found practical ways to use new technologies such as WebEx and Brainshark to reach large groups of clients and prospects without having to leave the office. The firm's health sciences group has embraced the “webinar” concept with its “Healthcare Connections” series of presentations on subjects ranging from the integration of architecture and technology to ideas for the patient room of the future. The web-based format gives healthcare professionals the ability to view the presentations when it's most convenient for them.

“It's a great way to help our clients better understand changes in the industry and also allows us to get in front of new clients, ” says Mike Hnastchenko, the firm's director of technology.

An innovator since its founding in 1909, Ellerbe Becket is a leader in architecture, engineering and the construction industry with office locations worldwide.
