06/08/2025 – Webinar: Greener by Design – Sustainable materials, innovations and supply chain

(This webinar was originally scheduled for Thursday 7 August. The NEW DATE is now Wednesday 6 August 2025).

Building on the momentum of our previous session, Designing for Tomorrow, we are thrilled to welcome award-winning engineer Sam Chen, Technical Director of Materials and Durability at Mott Macdonald to delve deeper into the practical and strategic dimensions of sustainability in the construction industry.

Greener by Design brings together elements of design, engineering, and supply chain management to explore how sustainable materials and innovative practices are reshaping the built environment. Tailored specifically for design professionals, this session examines sustainable material selection, innovation in practice, supply chain strategies and real-world examples showcasing how firms across Australia are integrating sustainability into their design and procurement processes.

Participants will gain insights on strategies for sourcing and specifying materials that align with both environmental goals and project performance requirements. Whether you’re navigating regulatory shifts or seeking to future-proof your practice, this webinar offers valuable tools and insights to support a more sustainable future in design and construction.
