Climate Clinic – Diagnosing and treating the built environment
Can we adapt, reuse and future-proof the buildings and places we already have?
BE-ST Fest North
This summit will go beyond discussion. It will convene those already delivering solutions on the ground, industry leaders, innovators, policymakers, and communities to share practical insights, align efforts, and accelerate implementation. The focus is clear: how do we overcome barriers, strengthen supply chains and scale solutions to drive the delivery of warmer, more efficient, and low energy homes across the North and beyond?
Scotland’s compliance plan approach
Join us for an introduction to new guidance, and proposals for new legislation in Scotland, that will introduce new requirements for the construction industry when they are engaged in building warrant projects.

Delivering Scotland’s Energy Future
A chance to celebrate and discuss the low-carbon initiatives introduced by public sector bodies across Scotland.
This is a chance to connect with public sector organisations delivering net zero, hear their experiences in delivering projects and gather insights from our expert teams here to support you.
We will be bringing together speakers from across the public sector to gain an understanding of their net zero journey, highlighting the successes and challenges they have overcome. This is a great opportunity to recognise and celebrate the progress that has been made to date, while looking ahead at what needs to be done to go further.
This event is designed for public sector attendees only - it is free to attend, but spaces are limited and must be reserved in advance.
