Pathways to Net-Zero Buildings in B.C.
Date: June 4 to 5, 2015
Location: Sandman Hotel Vancouver, 180 W. Georgia
The Pembina Institute in conjunction with our lead sponsors — the Real Estate Foundation of British Columbia and TD Bank — is pleased to extend to you an invitation to our Thought Leader Forum: Pathways to Net-Zero Buildings in B.C.
This is not a conference. It is an opportunity for a frank conversation about what works and what does not in public policy for high-performance new commercial and multi-residential buildings in B.C. In a roll-up-your-sleeves environment, we will test policies, clarify challenges and identify areas of consensus.
As a leader in your field, we need your input to help to shape B.C.’s pathway toward a net-zero buildings policy.
The forum will include representatives from provincial and local governments, developers, builders, contractors, utilities, architects, engineers, research institutions, non-government organizations and labour groups.
This invitation-only two-day event will build on the foundational work of the Pacific Northwest Economic Region, the Integral Group, the New Buildings Institute, the Lighthouse Building Centre, the Cascadia Green Building Council and others to help chart a course for net-zero buildings in B.C. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to shape B.C.’s net-zero buildings policy!
This is event is open to UDI Okanagan members on a first come, first serve basis while seats last. An early RSVP is appreciated. A formal invitation is coming soon, but confirming your attendance now will help with planning. If you are unable to attend, please let us know as soon as possible as there is already a wait list for this event.
