This far reaching conference investigated the opportunities and challenges for companies working in the green sector. The event took the format of 12 seminars, with 3 parallel streams of workshops and debates packed into one day featuring leading Irish and international experts, designers, academics, innovators and investors in sustainability for the built environment.

The discussions converged on the common theme of ‘making the business case for sustainability’, quantifying the economic value of energy and resource efficiency and resilient systems.

This event was organised by IGBC (Irish Green Building Council), Cultivate, and Sustainable Building Show.

This conference counted for 7 structured RIAI CPD points.
