Why This Matters

Almost half of the world’s largest real estate investors, who own or control more than $1.2T of property, have no target to reduce the carbon emissions from their portfolios. Yet, according to Lockton, a survey conducted by CBRE with over 500 real estate professionals shows that occupiers are much more likely than investors to reject a building if it lacks ESG features, suggesting that demand for buildings with strong ESG credentials is going to outstrip supply shortly over time. Between confusion over policy, certifications, consumer demands, and overall processes, Bisnow's ESG Summit will strive to unpack the regulatory environment, economic strategies, conversations with clients, and distinctions between retrofitting old buildings for the better and creating innovative, sustainable new spaces for London's future. 

What You'll Learn: 

• What challenges do real estate companies face when balancing the short-term pressures of profitability with long-term sustainability goals?
• How are today's sustainable projects currently being financed? How are lenders and investors assessing ESG-related risks?
• How are companies using data to track and improve upon carbon strategy? How can tenants and real estate better communicate to meet everyone's ESG targets?
• How do developers and operators best integrate sustainability into development whilst managing ESG-related expenses?
• What strategies can be employed to future-proof Grade A buildings against evolving ESG standards and regulations?
• What are the primary motivations for retrofitting and upgrading commercial buildings, and how do these benefits compare to constructing new buildings?

Who You'll Meet: London's top policymakers, advocates for sustainability, developers, owners, and investors embracing ESG integration and implementation.
