Episode 28: What Is FOOTPRINT+ And Why You Might Want To Be There
We are delighted to announce that we will be going to FOOTPRINT+ as a media partner for this exciting event which takes place in Brighton on 7-9 June 2022. Our three guests will leave you in no doubt about the value of attending FOOTPRINT+. In our opinion, this event is a much-needed model that should ideally be replicated around the world.
What is FOOTPRINT+ ?
FOOTPRINT+ will gather representatives from every sector of the UK construction and property market to discuss and discover how to action state of the art methods to achieve Net Zero in construction and real estate.
The exhibition space enables stakeholders and experts to meet face-to-face, learn from each other and build the relationships required for putting sustainable solutions into practice.
Emily speaks about how the event came about, what you can expect of it, and who will be there.
“Footprint Plus is a place where everybody from the whole broad spectrum of different disciplines within construction, architecture, property, and engineering can get together and learn from one another about all of the different initiatives that we’re all introducing.
No one initiative is going to solve all of the problems. But together, we can share knowledge on all the good things that we’re doing and accelerate the progress that the industry needs to make to reduce the carbon emissions that we’re responsible for.”
