Dear Industry Colleague,
I am delighted to announce some
exciting new changes we have made
to our conference this year, resulting
in the launch of the Sustainable
Design & Construction Conference.
Following increased demand from
the market and with input from our
Advisory Panel, we have developed
an agenda specifically with the
design community in mind, whilst
maximising value for our
construction, consulting and
engineering colleagues.
This year’s conference will provide a
world-class platform welcoming over
35 speakers and 700 delegates from
around the world, addressing key
issues such as effective
masterplanning, sustainability, new
technologies and low energy emitting
materials, building regulations,
achieving LEED status, façade design,
fire safety and much more.
We hope that you can join us and I look
forward to meeting you in November.
