The Global Summit for City-Shaping Leaders

The Built World Summit explores the theme of Resilient Cities, examining how urban areas can adapt and thrive amid climate, economic, social and technological change.

The programme combines a central conference day with further sessions, site visits and workshops hosted by partners across London, bringing together discussions on cities, industries and shared challenges. The Summit brings together senior leaders from across the built environment sector, alongside city leaders, policymakers and institutional investors, from both the public and private sectors.

London is positioned as a learning city, offering a living laboratory where built environment leaders can compare urban cycles, test ideas and learn across difference. Its long history of adaptation and its global concentration of expertise make it a distinctive setting for the summit.

The Summit is expected to bring together around 500 senior leaders across the built environment, city leadership, policy and investment.

Yes – there will be dedicated quiet meeting spaces and areas for attendees to take calls throughout the venue.
