FUTUREBUILD SHOW PREVIEW 31 SHOW PREVIEW
BE THE CATALYST FOR CHANGE
FutureBuild is again heading to ExCeL in March, this time aiming to unite construction professionals across the sector to create real change in addressing the climate crisis
rom recent demonstrations to Government declarations, according to event organisers at Futurebuild 2020, the message is clear – the industry needs to work together if it is to succeed against the climate change challenges we all face. Against this backdrop, Futurebuild 2020 (3-5 March, ExCeL London) aims to inspire housebuilders and developers to join fellow industry leaders and innovators to be the catalyst for change, and deliver a more sustainable built environment.
F SETTING THE AGENDA
The Futurebuild conference returns, and will follow a three-day progression for 2020. With a central theme of responding to the climate and ecological crisis, the Arena will host debate and discussion led by politicians, academics and ‘industry shapers.’
Some of the sessions highlighted by the
organisers include: ‘The future is regenerative’ chaired by Peter Murray, chair of New London Architecture (3 March), which will “explore how design and construction needs a circular rethink.” On day two (4 March), London
Mayoral candidate Rory Stewart will sit on a panel looking at ‘Carbon neutral cities of the future,’ and “examine the pathway to healthier, more resilient cities.”
While conference discussions will focus on the biggest issues facing the built environment at a macro level, the six Keynote Stages will look at the specific challenges impacting Buildings, Offsite, Energy, Interiors, Resourceful Materials and Critical Infrastructure. This programme of solution-driven sessions will “share the latest thinking and research, to educate, inform and inspire visitors to make a positive change.” Each day, the six stages will host a focused keynote presentation by a recognised expert in their field. This and other sessions will look at tangible solutions and approaches which will “make a real difference to practice and performance,” say the organisers. The Buildings Keynote stage will focus on the latest thinking and initiatives in building quality and performance, key sessions include ‘The Future Homes Standard 2025 – when, what, how?’ The session taking place on the show’s third day (5 March) will be chaired by Lynne
