Building Green - Scaling for Enough

European and Nordic focus on how to optimise the usage of our existing m2

29october

Join us at this year’s Building Green in Copenhagen, where we will explore how to make better use of the existing buildings mass.

It’s often said that the most sustainable building is the one already standing. Yet, there is a growing demand for more square meters – especially in major cities. A key question, therefore, is: How can we make better use of the buildings we already have?

In this session, you’ll gain the latest insights into what the EU Commission and the Nordic countries are doing in this field. You’ll also have the opportunity to ask questions and share your knowledge, tools or inspiring examples of renovation and transformation – whether it’s about extending the lifespan of buildings or adapting spaces for new uses.
