Seminars look at the circular economy

UK: The next series of Daikin’s Future Thinking seminars will look at the challenges and opportunities of developing a circular economy in building services.

Reducing the environmental impact of climate control solutions means moving away from the “take, make and dispose” model of manufacture and management, towards a circular economy in which resources, waste and emissions are minimised.

The new series, Developing a Circular Economy in Building Services, will look at how these changes will affect the entire building services industry – demanding greater collaboration between suppliers, designers, installers and end users of heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems.

Venues and dates for the seminars are: Glasgow (October 31), Edinburgh (November 1), Newcastle (November 6), Leeds (November 7), Manchester (November 8), Birmingham (November 13), Southampton (November 14), Nottingham (November 15), London (November 20), Bristol ( November 21), Cardiff (November 22).
