BRE Group Annual Conference 2011 & BRE Trust Research Conference - This event has already finished
24 May 2011 - The Saatchi Gallery, London, SW3
BRE Annual Conference 2011 REGISTER
Our theme this year is A tipping Point : A Time for change in our industry
We've reached a tipping point - a convergence of global trends are shifting the shape of the modern business, political and societal landscape: How will this affect those working in the built environment and the corporate world? What changes will need to be employed that combine a number of disparate, but connected social, economic and environmental factors together to ensure the optimum outcome?
These issues will be explored at the conference by a range of speakers from the world of Business, Technology, Finance and the Built Environment. Their presentations will be followed with a panel discussion and the event concludes with refreshments and an opportunity to network with peers and colleagues.
