Michael Pelken has been invited to serve as an expert panellist by BRE and Innovate UK at the Construction 2050 Conference
From the conference:
The foundation industries operate on long term investment cycles. This means that many companies are now planning the facilities that will be in operation in 2050. But the need to reduce carbon emissions and improve resource efficiency are impacting not just the foundation industries, but also their customers. What types of materials and products will their customers be wanting to purchase this far into the future?
This online workshop will bring together the foundation industries and the construction industry to understand the drivers and future requirements of the sector. There will be an opportunity to hear from Innovate UK, gain insight into the initial findings from the research project, delve deeper into specific challenge areas and hear from key construction sector representatives on their innovation requirements.
