The NFB Construction Summit is open to the whole of Construction and will take place on the 7th April 2022

The theme of the Summit will be “The Future of Construction; Leading for Success” with a day that’s split into 2 distinct sessions. The morning session will focus on people and culture and the afternoon session leads on creating a sustainable organisation.

The day is packed with an impressive line-up of speakers, where you can hear how they have built winning teams and changed the culture of their organisation for success through to their journey to Net Zero. During the day you will hear about the World's Greenest Football club, building effective teams through to the full value cycle.
