BIID Quickfire on Sustainability
Primary tabs
Event description
The Quickfire Series has been created to enable our members to find out more about key subjects in a timely easy to digest format. This event will focus on sustainability.
In a recent poll, 1.2 million people in 50 countries were questioned by the UN Development Programme (UNDP) about the current climate crisis, two-thirds of those that answered agreed that climate change is a global emergency. As interior designers, what can we do to source and specify products and services that not only care for the environment, but also work towards creating a better one?
The BIID has invited six suppliers to present for 5 minutes each on how they approach sustainability in the design and implementation of their products.
The event will last approximately 45 minutes with an opportunity for Q and A.
Other events in the Quickfire Series will include:
- Wellness and Wellbeing - 11th February 2021
- Retrofit - 15th April 2021
- Ethical Sourcing - 13th May 2021
Who should attend
This event is open to BIID Registered Interior Designers, BIID Associate and Provisional members and Employees of BIID Registered Design Practices. Spaces are limited. To avoid disappointment, please do not book this event if you are not one of these member types.
