Futurebuild, the leading event for innovation in the built environment, is back for its 18th year at London’s ExCeL (5 – 7 March, 2024).
With over 20,000 professionals, including architects, planners, developers, and manufacturers, this event serves as a catalyst for a greener, more resilient future.
At the heart of Futurebuild is a powerful mission: to drive change and create a better-built environment. Martin Hurn, Event Director, emphasizes that Futurebuild is not just an event but a call to action. The 2023 event saw industry leaders pledging for change, with 5000+ commitments made. Now, Futurebuild challenges attendees to turn those promises into action, urging them to ‘show your (climate) stripes’.
Collaboration remains key to Futurebuild’s success. Partnering with over 70 organisations and featuring 500+ speakers, including UK Green Building Council and RIBA, the event fosters innovation through collaboration. Exhibitor Pilkington attests to the value of engaging with diverse professionals, promoting the event’s ability to connect like-minded individuals.
Futurebuild 2024 introduces new conference themes – ‘Share your vision, show your stripes, and embrace the change’.
These themes emphasise climate action and the urgency of working together for a sustainable built environment. The event will also welcome new exhibitors like Danosa and Saint Gobain and brings back innovators like Aico and Bosch.
Returning after its successful debut, the FutureX Innovation Area showcases start-ups and SMEs, featuring the ‘Dragon’s Den’ style Big Ideas Pitch, recognizing the most innovative idea of 2024. The event also hosts the Innovation Gallery, Big Innovation Pitch, and Innovation Trail, where partners present groundbreaking solutions to a live audience.
Futurebuild 2024 offers nine dedicated zones, including FutureX Innovation Area, Materials, Interiors, Offsite, Retrofit, Sustainable Infrastructure, Energy, Buildings, and Digital. Each zone features targeted seminars and exhibitors, facilitating knowledge sharing and networking.
Join Futurebuild in shaping the future of the built environment. Take a stand, share your vision, and be part of the solution. For more information and exhibitor inquiries, visit www.futurebuild.co.uk.
