RICS-REDAS Singapore Smart Buildings Conference 2023 | RICS | 31 October 2023 | Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel, 392 Havelock Rd, Singapore 169663

The climate emergency challenges urban development, meanwhile Singapore’s strong emphasis on sustainability is evident through robust green building policies and the Singapore Green Plan 2030. Smart buildings are crucial for achieving net zero operations, and this event will serves as a roadmap for transforming buildings into sustainable assets. The SGBMP sets targets and strategies to drive green building practices and enhance energy efficiency. Envisioning smarter Singapore, how can we turn challenges into innovation-led opportunities?
