Better Building is an International Conference for a Sustainable Built Environment being held for the first time in Dublin on 25 April 2012.
This conference investigates the opportunities and challenges for companies working in the green sector. The event takes the format of 15 seminars, with 4 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 diverse topics discussed aim to converge on the common theme of ‘making the business case for sustainability’, quantifying the economic value of energy and resource efficiency and resilient systems.
The conference debates the critical issues facing property, design and construction professionals and showcases studies on exemplar projects and where sustainable design and decision-making has resulted in a win-win solution for all stakeholders. Expert-led technical workshops will ‘look under the hood’ of sustainability tools to investigate tricks of the trade.
An evening social event and facilitated networking session ensures interaction for developing business opportunities, meeting others and exchanging ideas.
This event is organised by Éasca, Irish Green Building Council, Cultivate, Sustainable Building Show, The Chartered Institute of Building and the Passive House Association of Ireland.
