Britcon was proud to sponsor the Insider Property Leaders’ Roundtable in Leeds, an event focused on the growing importance of repurposing and retrofitting within the built environment.
With increasing pressure to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions, the forum brought together a panel of industry experts to explore the challenges and opportunities associated with transforming existing properties. The discussion centred around sustainability, policy, funding, and the commercial viability of net zero carbon buildings.
Panel Members Included:
- David Donkin – Property Director, Wykeland Group
- Craig Burrow – Group Property Director, Town Centre Securities
- Ed Snaith – Projects Director, Allied London
- Steven Reynolds – National Head of Building Surveying, Rider Levett Bucknall
- Michael Grace – Director, Turner & Townsend
- Beth Laidler – Partner, Blacks Solicitors
- Murray Graham – Associate Director of Planning, Enzygo
- Alex Blenard – Executive Director, Rex Procter & Partners
- Alex Cesarsky – Architect, HLM Architects
- Nick Shepherd – Managing Director, Britcon UK
- Ross Reed – Group Quality & Sustainability Manager, Britcon UK
Ross Reed commented:
“We were delighted to sponsor this event. Britcon has extensive experience supporting clients on their carbon reduction journeys, but it’s always valuable to hear from other stakeholders across the industry. The roundtable sparked lively debate around policy, funding and yields, helping us better understand the appetite and direction of travel for net zero carbon buildings.”
The event was hosted at Town Centre Securities’ Leeds office, and Britcon extends its thanks for providing the venue and supporting the conversation around sustainable development.
