National & Regional Collaboration
To build the sustainable built environment people and planet need, its vital to have input from experts across the UK. That's why UKGBC works with members from across the UK and gives unique offerings.
National and regional collaboration is a key factor in our mission towards a sustainable built environment. UKGBC works with members across our city networks to strengthen the relationships between industry and local government across the built environment sector.
UKGBC Scotland
At COP26, UKGBC launched our new network dedicated to accelerating the transformation of the built environment in Scotland. This new network is aimed at offering our Scotland-based members a bespoke, policy-led programme of engagement to accelerate the change that is already happening in the devolved nation.
Local Area Networks
UKGBC is committed to quarterly events in (each of) Birmingham, Bristol and Manchester, working with our members in those cities to support thriving UKGBC local networks and develop an engagement model that can be expanded across the UK.
