This is why, in one of the industry\u2019s most exciting recent developments, construction marketing specialists BCM Agency are hosting the first ever Specifier Summit, an event specifically to help professionals move construction sustainability conversations away from costs and towards benefits.<\/p>\n<p>This event &#8211; the inaugural <a href=\"https:\/\/content.bcmagency.co.uk\/specifier-summit-2024\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Specifier Summit<\/a> \u2013 takes place\u00a0 on 7<sup>th<\/sup> November,\u00a0 and as it draws nearer, we wanted to explain more about who\u2019ll be there, and the value in what they\u2019ll have to say.<\/p>\n<p>Below, we introduce some of the sponsors, supporters, and speakers, and let them describe their contributions, and the reasons for their involvement in the event, in their own words.<\/p>\n<h3>Sponsors joining the Specifier Summit include:<\/h3>\n<h4>Futurebuild: the nation\u2019s sustainable construction champion<\/h4>\n<p>Futurebuild have made it their mission to make a positive impact on the built environment.<\/p>\n<p>For more than 20 years, they have been promoting sustainability, pushing the boundaries of what\u2019s possible in terms of innovation in sustainable building, fostering collaboration within the industry, and inspiring positive change in construction methods to create a more sustainable built environment.<\/p>\n<p>The Summit will also see Futurebuild speaker Martin Hurn, event director, take the stage, to discuss the findings of the extensive, industry-wide research that Futurebuild have recently conducted with industry leaders to uncover insights and identify the key trends, challenges, and opportunities set to make an impact in the construction sector.<\/p>\n<p>Martin says of the Summit: \u201cThis event is a must for construction industry professionals who need to understand more not just about sustainable methods and materials, but about how to articulate the benefits of these to customers and end-users, and move the conversation away from cost alone.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re very proud to be supporting it, and I\u2019m very excited to be speaking there.\u201d<\/p>\n<h4>BCC Consultancy: getting quality, safety, and sustainability right<\/h4>\n<p>BCC Consultancy is a leading Building Control Consultancy within the renowned Broste Rivers Ltd, a wholly-owned holding company which delivers building control and associated services.
