ACES is a networking luncheon series dedicated to connecting professionals between Richmond and DC, from the Architecture, Construction, and Engineering (ACE) industries, a sector that is very active in the adoption of Information, Communication and Technology. These luncheons serve as an opportunity for like-minded individuals to collaborate and network while hearing from industry experts, engaging in insightful conversations and enjoying a local dining experience. ACES is not an exclusive group and is open to the public. Guest Speaker: Keith Mellinger, University of Mary Washington, Dean, College of Arts & Sciences Dr. Keith E.
