Greenbuild Heads to Europe

Greenbuild is coming to Europe April 17-18, and will take place in Berlin at the Radisson Blu Hotel and Meeting Center.

“Greenbuild’s expansion into the European market is reflective of the tremendous leadership and demand from the green building community to learn from and push each other to advance our movement,” said Mahesh Ramanujam, president and CEO, USGBC and Green Business Certification Inc., who will deliver Greenbuild Europe’s closing remarks. “Greenbuild is where the future of the green building movement is shaped and where the ideas and passions of the green building community come alive.”

Rick Fedrizzi, chair and CEO of the International WELL Building Instituteä, the developers of the WELLBuilding Standardä, has been announced as the opening keynote speaker. Fedrizzi is considered one of the foremost leaders of the global green and healthy building movement and a sought-after speaker. He is also the founding chair and former CEO of USGBC.

“Whenever the green building movement has the opportunity to convene, we marshal new energy to take our work forward,” Fedrizzi said. “We’ve made great progress in improving building performance across every metric; we now need to do the same for human performance by making sure buildings are designed in ways that help people thrive. This ‘second wave’ of sustainability is really exciting, and it will be great to see it continue to take shape at Greenbuild Europe.”

Green building in Europe is a key strategy in helping the region mitigate the impacts of climate change and improve the efficiency and performance of buildings. Last year, Germany and Turkey made USGBC’s list of Top 10 Countries and Regions for LEED, together representing more than 521 LEED certified projects totaling more than 13 million gross square meters of space. In Europe alone, there are over 2,100 LEED certified projects comprising over 40 million gross square meters of certified space.

USGBC also launched GBCI Europe in 2017 as a local hub serving the needs of the European green building community by providing on-the-ground customer support for regional project teams and stakeholders. Europe has been a leader of the green building market and has the opportunity to continue to drive sustainability at a global scale. GBCI Europe will further facilitate the global growth of a sustainable built environment locally and across the globe.

Early bird registration for Greenbuild Europe is available through March 21 at greenbuild.usgbc.org/europe/registration .Education sessions are live: greenbuild.usgbc.org/europe#sessions. Sign up for emails to get the latest announcements about the show and follow @USGBC and @GBCIEurope on Twitter.
