Sustainable Places

Get Ready for Sustainable Places 2024

DAY 1 (23 Sept.) – SP24 Opening ceremony and two site visit options: 
After the SP24 opening ceremony (17:20 – 18:00), anyone who previously signed up for either site visit (i.e., Philharmonic or city tour), should convene either just outside the front door if weather permits, or in the ECCL lobby if it’s raining. There is a capacity for both visits, so if you did not previously sign up, unfortunately you can not join either option.

DAYS 2 and 3 (24 and 25 Sept.) – SP24 registration and check-in (VERY IMPORTANT): 
SP24 speakers who have 09:00 sessions should arrive to ECCL by 08:00, because there will be a security checkpoint and you will need to arrive early to your assigned room so the sessions start on time. This also leaves time to collect your welcome bag before the 09:00 session. For reference, a Speaker Instructions document is available should you have any doubts.

SP24 non-speakers who will attend 09:00 sessions should arrive to ECCL by 08:30, for the same reason (i.e., time for the security checkpoint and collecting your welcome bag).

We thank you in advance for your cooperation, and are excited to meet in person!

Conference Scope

Sustainability targets and climate change objectives cannot be met without addressing buildings and the built environment at the building, district and urban scale to include our transport and energy infrastructures. Renowned for showcasing results coming out of the EU Horizon 2020 and EU Horizon Europe Framework Programme via the participation of cutting-edge research and innovation projects, the scope of Sustainable Places is captured directly in its name. It involves designing, building and retrofitting the places we live and work in a more sustainable way.
