FOOTPRINT+ is the world's most advanced international conference for the decarbonisation of the built environment. Constantly breaking new ground, it has set a precedent in the UK's rapidly advancing and ever more integrated property and technology sectors.
Arriving in London 14-15 May 2025 at Old Billingsgate, FOOTPRINT+ explores how technology and materials, energy systems and data can work together synergistically to drive down buildings' carbon emissions. With 7 vibrant conference stages, the event features bespoke installations, an inspirational design forum and exciting networking events.
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.
