UKGBC announces new Solutions & Innovation Advisory Group

Meet the members of UKGBC's new Advisory Scheme who are supporting our Solutions & Innovation workstream.

It can be hard to keep up with the latest developments in sustainable innovation, but UKGBC’s Solutions & Innovation Team is continuously sourcing and profiling impactful solutions, talking to both innovators and the industry adopting them to understand their impacts. 

UKGBC’s Solutions & Innovation workstream seeks to:

Increase the adoption of solutions that help address the industry’s most pressing environmental and social challenges.
Showcase best practice built case studies and viable sustainability solutions through our ever-expanding Solutions and Case Study Libraries.
Help innovative start-ups scale and gain market insight through a discounted membership category and dedicated activities.
Support a culture of open innovation and collaboration between corporate and start-ups.

Our new Solutions & Innovation Advisory group was convened to support with the workstream’s activities by:

Reviewing new solutions and case studies for inclusion in the Solutions Library to ensure their quality and appropriateness to UKGBC’s mission and membership base.
Providing market insight and solution development advice to UKGBC’s Innovative Start-Up members to help them refine their offering and business models.
