Join us at Futurebuild 2023

7-9 March, Excel London

Futurebuild is the leading event for the sustainable construction industry where organisations from the entire supply chain - and from across the world - gather in London for three days of debate and discussion.

It brings together more than 15,000 influencers and decision-makers to facilitate the innovation and collaboration that is needed to transform the industry and achieve net zero targets.

Energiesprong UK will be involved in a number of sessions within the Retrofit section, including joining a panel to discuss Innovation in the retrofit industry, chairing a session on Collaboration, and contributing to the event’s wrap-up session to discuss the insights from all three days and what the future of delivering retrofit at scale might look like.

Full details are below of the sessions:

Tuesday 7th March

We’ll be attending the Retrofit Academy Awards to support our partners Osborne and Alex Whitcroft who have been shortlisted in the Retrofit Contractor of the Year and Retrofit Designer of the Year categories respectively. Emily Braham, Director of Strategy & Operations, also forms part of the judging panel for the Awards.

Collaboration, not competition – a radical idea for the construction sector!
