Peter Madden to deliver CIBSE Annual Lecture
New CEO of Future Cities Catapult to speak on climate change
CIBSE has announced the speaker and programme for the hotly anticipated 2013 Annual Lecture and half-day legislative update seminar. This year’s event will take place 31 October at The Royal Academy of Engineering’s Prince Philip House.
Buildings and those who design, manage and operate them continue to produce about 50% of human carbon emissions. With this in mind, CIBSE President George Adams has
invited Peter Madden, the newly appointed chief executive of Future Cities Catapult, to speak on the subject of cities and the impact of climate change. The lecture promises to deliver an informative evening and lively debate and fl ows on from last year’s topic of Britain’s energy mix.
Ahead of the event, CIBSE is also running a half-day seminar delivering a legislative technical update to members and others involved in the building services industry. The event will cover European directives and domestic legislation changes. The afternoon will also include case studies highlighting best practice and innovation in building performance, and will conclude with a presentation by Mark Bew, who leads the Government BIM Task Group, on the latest progress with the Government BIM agenda.
These events
continue to develop CIBSE’s thought leadership in low-
carbon strategies and building services innovation and knowledge. They have proven to be an unmissable for Building Services Engineers in the built environment.

Fancy a polar exploration?
CIBSE is adding two more publications to the Building in Extreme Environments series: Tropical and Polar. Each is authored by a steering committee, and CIBSE wants members who have expertise and experience of working in
polar building environments, to consider joining the Polar team. You will play an integral role in writing the publications and ensuring information and technical guidance is as accurate and useful as possible. Email
