Abstract:
The winning entry of the 2015 ACI Young Professional Essay Contest advocates that young professionals participate in sharing knowledge among sectors of the concrete industry-not only to promote industry growth, but also to stimulate growth and development of each individual into a successful industry leader of tomorrow. Using the Internet is one of the most powerful resources to effectively and efficiently encourage collaboration and the spread of knowledge. Also, face-to-face events are important for young professionals to be able to facilitate the growth of the goals and ideas.
