Building Europe’s future: transforming the construction sector for a climate-neutral, circular and competitive economy

A profound transformation of materials, processes, business models and skills is needed to achieve climate-neutral and circular construction. This panel will discuss how the construction ecosystem can be reinvented to deliver the built environment Europe needs. Combining NEB case studies and policy perspectives, the panel will explore how innovation can be aligned with affordability, regulation and public procurement, and how the sector can become simultaneously climate-positive, circular, socially fair and beautiful.
