The Construction Industry Council (CIC) and the HKGBC are proud to jointly present the World Sustainable Built Environment Conference 2017 Hong Kong (WSBE17 Hong Kong)  to be held on 5-7 June 2017 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.
 
Held on a three-year cycle, the SBE conference series is considered to be the most pre-eminent international conference series on sustainable building and construction in the world. Being selected as the host of this World Conference is not only a significant milestone for the CIC and HKGBC, but also a profound international recognition of Hong Kong’s passion and leadership role in driving the global green building movement.
 
Theme of the Conference is “Transforming our Built Environment through Innovation and Integration: Putting Ideas into Actions”. Innovation brings forward new ideas, theories and approaches. Integration examines inter-dependencies of systems and formulates effective actions. WSBE17 Hong Kong therefore is going to be “action-focused”, and is expecting to receive 1,800 green building experts including advocates, policy-makers, academics, industry practitioners and students from all over the world. It will also converge the best papers and findings from around 20 SBE Regional Conferences to be held in 2016 in different cities in the world.
 
WSBE17 Hong Kong:
  • Three full-day Conference with eminent speakers and top papers from the world
  • Green Building Tours in Hong Kong and Mainland China
  • Exhibition concurrent with the Conference
  • International Youth Competition
  • Immense Networking & Branding Opportunities
The Call-for-Abstract process of WSBE17 Hong Kong will commence soon in early 2016, and there would be much more to expect! So please save the date and stay tuned to our updates by e-news and on our Conference website: http://wsbe17hongkong.hk.
