Building Lasting Change: Lead what's next
June 17-19 | Montreal
The Canada Green Building Council® is gearing up for Building Lasting Change, Canada’s premier conference for green building professionals. Join us this June for the business and technical insights needed to accelerate high-value, resilient and zero-carbon buildings - and lead what's next for your business and Canada's building sector.
Why attend BLC?
With rising commitments to decarbonize and futureproof assets, demand for green buildings is growing. This industry shift creates opportunities to rethink how we design, construct, operate and finance building and retrofit projects. Today, architects, owners, occupiers, and investors are prioritizing green building to mitigate transition and climate risks, increase asset value, reduce operational expenses, and stay ahead of evolving standards and regulations.
BLC offers the insights and connections you need to lead this market transition. Over two packed days, industry leaders will dive into decarbonization drivers, financing models, regulatory shifts, and practical strategies to decarbonize existing buildings and build what's next.
