Climate change is a global challenge that is becoming increasingly apparent with each passing year. With buildings contributing to 40% of global greenhouse gas emissions, and these emissions expected to double by 2050 without intervention, our conference provides a necessary platform for exploring and implementing strategies to keep global warming below the 1.5°C threshold.

Now in its third year, Space Group's annual _shift conference, which draws hundreds of in-person and online attendees, will return on November 7th 2024. The conference brings together industry leaders and "empowered agents of change" to discuss strategies for decarbonising the built environment.

At _shift 2024, we will investigate and showcase the innovative efforts of those tackling present and future challenges. Key topics will include operational and embodied carbon, circular economy practices, data-driven solutions, systems-level thinking and more.

On November 7th, you can expect inspirational presentations, in-depth panel discussions, and networking opportunities with fellow professionals committed to climate action.

_shift is a free-to-attend event that takes place in Newcastle upon Tyne. Please note that registration for _shift is essential.
