BSRIA seminar on knowledge to achieve a net zero future
29 March 2023 - 10:00am1.5 hours Online webinar Knowledge to achieve a net zero future
An online seminar on Net Zero, will discuss the opportunities and challenges faced by the industry in meeting Net Zero for the built environment.
The built environment must become truly zero emissions. With commercial demand for net zero exceeding supply, there is a clear opportunity for industry leadership.
Organisations are realising that the winners will be those that plan for the future and embrace a more efficient, dynamic and net zero way of working. The question is – can you afford to be left behind?
This online seminar will set out the challenges faced by different organisations. We will also examine a range of solutions and ways of working that the industry needs to explore, consider and enact.
We will also update industry on a variety of knowledge and learning resources that are now available to help you build consensus and deliver the changes that are required to achieve a net zero future.
