Summary

Join CIOB London Tomorrow's Leaders as we look at how construction can coexist with ecosystems and promote biodiversity.

This face to face event will host a exciting panel of speakers within the field of sustainability in construction.

The evening will explore the following keypoints:

  • Presentation on Biodiversity Net Gain – Lessons learnt from the first 2 years of implementation and overview on the planning to the infrastructure bill presented by Lesley Wilson and Chris Moss.


  • Case study on how retailers and distributors of building/construction materials are responding to biodiversity and how we all can advocate a more sustainable future for construction presented by Sabrina Passley and Richard Burns.


  • Panel discussion with all the speakers from the evening to go through a Q&A on the key issues and priorities when it comes to nature and the built environment.


Why not join us for this CPD? Get inspired, see how construction can promote biodiversity also, a great chance to connect and learn.
