World Built Environment Forum Week 2024

Returning for its seventh year, the World Built Environment Forum’s annual global gathering, WBEF Week, will enable participants to engage in critical discussions about the direction of the built and natural environment with the people who are shaping it around the world.

Decarbonising the sector and improving impacts on cities, climate, and overall biodiversity will transform every aspect of business, investment, work and life. Yet amid economic uncertainty and worsening affordability crises, achieving this change at pace requires workable, investable, and business-compatible solutions.

Over four days, participants will build a picture of how standards, policy, investment, data and technology are changing the landscape across energy, infrastructure, and the land and building life cycle. To conclude, WBE

Key topics

• How SMEs working across the land and building lifecycle can manage the net zero transition
• Emerging nature-related policies, investment, regulation, and standardisation, that will shape the business of cities and the built environment in the decade to come.
