“50% of all of the carbon emissions that we need to reduce as we get to 2050 come from the built environment.

It’s from buildings, it’s from construction, it’s from logistics and it’s from infrastructure.

So there’s no escaping the destiny here: it HAS to be the built environment that takes the lead.”

Prof Greg Clark, CBE, Global Advisor

You have to come to FOOTPRINT+ because you see new products. I just walked around after my presentation and there are products here that I've never heard of.

Coming to FOOTPRINT+ always gets your head out of your books like you're back at university. It's really valuable if you take the time to meet people.

FOOTPRINT+ is a great opportunity to see a good cross-section of the industry—all the architects, engineers, and suppliers—in one place.

What you experience at FOOTPRINT is how engaged people are—there's an inherent passion within the audience.

Tom Harper

You’ve got the very best—the leaders in the industry—all in one place, and that’s so hard to get. It’s like a masterclass in two days.

It's a great scale, really manageable. Lots of innovation and great conversations. We’re here to share timber knowledge too.

Paul Newman

At FOOTPRINT+ we get to access an audience which we normally don’t have. It provides us an audience we might not normally have access to, to promote our materials. People should come to FOOTPRINT+ to have access to such innovation and materials and applications that you won't see anywhere else. It’s a one-stop shop for finding out about ways to improve your projects and working within the built environment, improving your carbon scores.

Benjamin Ayling
Lundhs Real Stone

I think it’s important to come to an event like Footprint because the right people are in the room. Even if you haven’t planned meetings in advance, you end up connecting with more people than you expected. It’s likely you’ll bump into someone you’ve met before, and there are lots of great spaces here to have meaningful conversations and explore ideas further. You need to be here because all of your industry peers are here.

Andrea Charlson
Madaster

It's great to have everyone in the room. It's great for us to know that there's a place where we're going to meet a lot of professionals. Also, it's sometimes very difficult for government to reach out to smaller organizations or people who are just not on our radar. So having sometimes casual encounters can be really good—to meet, get new ideas, new perspectives.

Nicolas Perin
DESNZ

Legal professionals should come because we play a key role in enabling sustainability. Whether it’s through contract drafting, risk management, or helping our clients navigate complex regulations, we have a real impact. Being here helps ensure we understand the latest standards and goals in the built environment sector.

Siobhan Cross
Pinsent Masons

FOOTPRINT+ brings together industry leaders under the sustainability umbrella. As the event grows, so does the presence of key stakeholders who see real business value in attending. Being on the panel was a fantastic experience—the room was packed, and the energy was high, showing just how engaged the audience is.

Jonny Plant
Corstorphine & Wright

I'm here today because, firstly, I’ve been to all the FOOTPRINT events in the past and it’s always been a great experience. You learn something new, and you also get to speak with so many people in the industry. This year has been no different—great conversations yesterday and today.
