One of the key dates for the CIOB calendar is our new sustainability conference, coming up on 4 September 2024.
The Institute will be holding the event through its online platform, gathering delegates from across the world.
The inaugural conference, Accelerating Towards a Net Zero Built Environment, will gather policymakers, sector leaders, professionals, contractors and clients to hold discussions around the industry’s targets, innovations and the challenges to overcome to achieve our net zero target for 2050.
A new app, CIOB Connect, will provide plenty of opportunities for attendees to ask questions and get involved in the discussions held throughout the day.
Exploring sustainable construction
CIOB head of sustainability Amanda Williams and incoming CIOB president Mike Kagioglou will bring together discussions on all methods of becoming a net zero industry, including biodiversity, the circular economy, retrofit and more.
The climate crisis will also be covered. The impact this will have on the future of construction and how we mitigate against the change in climate and severe weather will be a key focus.
Expert speakers have been drawn from across the globe to share stories, sustainable practices and insights, enabling delegates to make informed decisions in workplaces and projects to help tackle the crisis. As the conference is online, attendees from all over the world can access all of this valuable content.
