BEYOND THE STAGES
Around each Keynote Stage will be an exhibition of brands offering solutions to the challenges discussed in the event’s ‘knowledge programme.’ It will reportedly feature some of the largest “headline brands” in the sector, alongside SMEs and start-up organisations, creating a dedicated platform to connect these companies with forward-thinking specifiers and buyers. Brands and organisations that are leading the charge when it comes to innovation will be recognised through a dedicated Innovation Trail. A ‘guided route’ has been designed to enable visitors to learn more about the latest thinking from Futurebuild’s Innovation Partners, including ACO Technologies, Smart Systems, Cemex, Steico and Hadley Group. The Buildings section has also been expanded to include two new showcases. The Whole House Retrofit Zone and the Digital Impact Zone will host industry- leading brands.
THE GAME CHANGERS ARE BACK Futurebuild 2020 will see the return of the Big Innovation Pitch. Hosted in conjunction with technical partner BRE, the competition will identify and celebrate novel new approaches to some of the biggest challenges facing us all.
Entrants will present their ideas on each of the six Keynote Stages on day one, before shortlisted entries go head-to- head in the Arena on day two. A panel of judges will determine the overall winning idea, which will be incorporated into BRE Academy Training and showcased in the BRE Innovation Park. Martin Hurn, event director of Futurebuild, commented on the 2020 event’s agenda: “The responsibility for tackling the climate emergency lies in all of our hands and we must collaborate in order to find solutions to secure our future. Futurebuild 2020 provides the perfect platform for forward-thinking decision makers across the built environ- ment to come together and play a key part in driving positive change. “We understand that taking time out of work to attend events can be a challenge, which is why we will make sure that visitors can really get involved across a number of levels, from the world class knowledge programme in the Arena and on the Keynote Stages, to the showcase

of the latest innovations across the exhibition. Innovation to us is more than just futuristic concepts, it’s about sharing the latest thinking and ideas, processes and solutions, products and materials. All of these things coming together under one roof at Futurebuild 2020 will inspire people to do things differently and create real change.”
