Smart Buildings and Smart Spaces on the Rise
The market for smart buildings and smart spaces is rapidly increasing, driven by local and national laws, directives, corporate initiatives, organizational goals and ESG (environmental, social, governance) considerations. Smart buildings offer significant benefits, including energy and cost savings, carbon reduction and improvements in health and wellness. Additionally, smart spaces enable space optimization, energy usage optimization, cost savings and increases in productivity.
The SBS Leaders Forum will feature multiple educational presentations, including case studies, technological developments, market trends, regulatory requirements and recommendations. Participants will also have the opportunity to take part in accredited CPD (Continual Professional Development) courses on-site and network with professional colleagues.
