ATTENDEES
The concept for FOOTPRINT+ is straightforward. It has three parts.
1. The people developing the latest advances in carbon reduction techniques for the property industry take to the stage to share their new discoveries and knowledge.
2. The theatres fill with funders, developers and specifiers, there to hear what’s being said. They frequently cross-examine the speakers closely, so don’t expect an easy ride.
3. Around the theatres, companies take stands to meet delegates to work out how to deliver all this fairly complex theory with a realistic, cost effective approach.
The event is always a huge conversation where ideas, networking and experience flow freely in an atmosphere of optimism, enthusiasm and shared purpose.
As you’ll hear in the video and in our website reviews: FOOTPRINT+ is unique.
Conference
FOOTPRINT+ is a melting pot of ideas and experience. We hold the description ‘a centre of excellence’ very dear, so we strive to ensure that anyone presenting at the event is contributing something really hot-off-the-press and groundbreaking.
Exhibition
Incidental meetings are the backbone of live events. Every year, the companies who secure the most business have a stand or meeting space where clients can find them. It’s great to do a talk, but once it’s over, unless you have a meeting space, you can be hard to find.
Networking
As a FOOTPRINT+ sponsor your company will be promoted to all those looking to drive down carbon emissions from their built assets including developers, investors, local authorities and other asset managers. FOOTPRINT+ is the recognised leader in helping these organisations with the carbon transition that is underway.
Emily Hamilton: Savills IM
While FOOTPRINT+ is in the UK, it's really great to see so many different companies here represented with global footprints. A really important part of bringing together thought leaders within the UK is that often we are further ahead and we can then learn about how do we then implement across other parts of Europe or in Asia-Pacific.
Chris Clarke: ARC Partnership
This event is full of people you want to meet. I’ve seen colleagues of central government today, local authorities and other software providers. I've seen construction companies and consultants, investors and developers; all people from the built environment industry.
Julie Townsend: PGIM Real Estate
I’ve got some great new business leads particularly in terms of tech solutions at the asset level around real estate. I had a couple of innovative new companies who’ve approached me and I'm meeting just good consultants in the marketplace.
