Q&A's with Garreth Joyce, Director at Walsh
)
Why is it important that the UK’s property, planning and sustainability sectors come together at FOOTPRINT+?
The construction industry has seen serious challenges over the last couple of years and it is only by working together that we can overcome these in a sustainable way and meet net zero targets.
What did you hear about / experience at our last year’s event which has made you want to come back?
We visited last year’s event and were blown away by not only the quality of speakers but by the dynamic and positive vibe created by attendees.
When you attend FOOTPRINT+ in May 2024 what will you be sharing with conference delegates, policy makers, your partners, and your industry peers?
Walsh will be sharing engineering expertise to help minimise embodied carbon on new build developments, retrofit expertise for repurposing buildings and insights into how decisions taken at the design stage can impact upon the operational and whole-life carbon of a building, particularly those built to Passivhaus standards.
What are you looking to get out of the FOOTPRINT+ event?
We would like to showcase our sustainability credentials, catch-up with existing clients and meet new clients that share our sustainability ethos.
