Building a Net Zero Scotland. Are we on track?
Overview
Stay on top of market trends, legislation, and technical guidance as the RICS Scotland conference returns for 2024 with a focus on sustainability and the challenges and opportunities that the journey towards net-zero will bring to the profession in Scotland.
The newly opened Edinburgh Futures Institute, itself a prime example of sustainable development, will provide the backdrop for the conference where you will get the inside track on industry developments including the transition to greener energy, retrofitting existing properties and the latest regulatory updates.
A range of break out options will allow you to tailor the conference to your specific development needs and there will be opportunities throughout the day to connect with other industry experts from across Scotland.
Delegates are invited to stay to attend the RICS regional awards event which will be taking place after the conference, where you will discover which projects from Scotland will go forward to compete at the prestigious national RICS Awards ceremony in October.
