The latest series of seminars will start on June 28 and visit 11 venues across the UK.

Specifically designed for building services engineers and consultants, the seminars will discuss the future direction of system integration, analytics and building performance.

A chartered environmentalist as well as a chartered engineer, Doug King is the engineer behind several innovative projects including Sainsbury’s in Greenwich, the Genzyme Centre in Cambridge, Massachusettes and the Innovate Green Office in Leeds.
