Emergent Sustainable Built Environment Materials - ESBEM Innovation Network
Are you involved in low-environmental materials with the built environment? Join us for the first networking workshop in the ESBEM (Emergent Sustainable Built Environment Materials) Innovation Network Series.
Overview
ESBEM works across the construction supply chain vertical and horizontals to grow the UK low-environmental impact materials supply chain by fostering collaborations and partnerships between forward-thinking organisations. It encompasses all aspects of UK construction from dwellings to railways; with a focus on mid to high TRL materials and components; but, excluding the Foundation Industries such as steel and cement that have strong trade bodies and other initiatives.

This initial networking workshop will:
- Launch the Network
- Identify changes to barriers and blockers to the growth of the UK supply chain
