INTERNATIONAL GREEN BUILDING CONFERENCE 2023

Our buildings are one of the most significant contributors to global carbon emissions, being responsible for nearly 40% of the world’s carbon emissions while occupying only 3% of the total land mass. As the world urgently races to decarbonise, accelerating the greening of the built environment will move the needle on our climate goals.

The International Green Building Conference 2023, organised by the Singapore Green Building Council (SGBC) on 26-27 June 2023 at the Raffles City Convention Centre, will dive deep into the critical role that green buildings play in mitigating climate change.

As the premier event for professionals, key opinion leaders and policymakers in the green building industry, the Conference will feature engaging keynotes, presentations, panel discussions, and tabletop exhibitions, providing you with valuable insights and knowledge on green building best practices. Network with fellow professionals, connect with industry leaders, and collaborate on new ideas and strategies towards a greener, healthier and low-carbon future.

Don't miss this opportunity to be part of the conversation on green buildings and built environment sustainability. Register now at www.igbc.sg and join the movement towards a more sustainable future.
