1st Sustainable Building Technology Conference

This coming November 11 and 12, three of the most respected organizations in the country are bringing you another first. The Philippine Constructors Association (PCA) and the Philippine Society of Ventilating, Air-Conditioning, and Refrigerating Engineers (PSVARE) have teamed up with the Philippine Green Building Initiative (PGBI) for the country’s 1st Sustainable Building Technology Conference.

With the theme “The GREEN Dream: Tomorrow’s Technology, Today”, this two-day conference will be held alongside the two biggest industry events, PHILCONSTRUCT 2010 and HVAC/R PHILIPPINES 2010, at the SMX Convention Center. Its primary aim is to unite the different industries in accomplishing the national framework for climate change through educating professionals, paving the way for the development and implementation of green building technologies. It will be the only annual conference specifically dedicated to the full realization of energy efficiency and sustainability in the Philippines.

Our keynote speaker is the world guru in green architecture, Karan Grover. A pioneer in the field of green building and design, Grover has gained recognition for his revolutionary work, leading the US Green Building Council to honor him with the Platinum Award for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) in 2002 – the first architect in the world to gain such distinction. Among the topics that will be discussed in the conference are: the Science of Green Building, the Need for Energy Efficient Building Standards, Green Home Building, Sustainable Site & Design, and many more.

Over 200 delegates composed of architects, contractors, developers, engineers, home owners, project managers, and more will be invited to take part in this unique learning experience. As an experienced Architect, you can contribute to this cause by becoming one of the conference’s delegates. Help us recognize the contributions each of us can make and communicate the importance of protecting our natural environment.
