Our buildings experts are constantly striving to achieve the ideal in vertical urbanism. We are committed to making a positive impact, and as such, we want to design buildings that bring so much more than just height to a city. From improving sustainability and operational performance, to nurturing occupants’ wellbeing and connecting communities, we all need to design and deliver buildings more holistically to create lasting value.

By attending the conference, we hope to share our experiences and learn from others. So if you would like to discuss your ideas or your project challenges, feel free to contact any of our delegates listed below.

We’re excited to be speaking at two sessions:
