National Planning Summit 2021
18 May 2021 - 19 May 2021
Central Government and local neighbourhoods alike are pressing for higher quality designed buildings, schemes that reflect the needs of communities and more sustainable place making. This pressure on the planning sector is compounded by the need to tackle the nation’s ongoing housing crisis and an increasing number of environmental issues and considerations affecting new developments.
Planners today must understand their role in helping deliver on the nation’s carbon neutral targets through a greater understanding of how technological and social trends will shape the future built environment. At the same time and in order to achieve this, there exists an opportunity for the sector to embrace technology and automation on a much wider scale in order optimise their operational, engagement and spatial planning activities.
