On Wednesday 26th and Thursday 27th June 150 Holborn welcomed over 100 delegates from the world’s Green Building Councils as we hosted the 2024 World Green Building Council Summit.

This flagship event of the World Green Building Council biennial Leadership Summit put an emphasis on finance as a critical tool to accelerate a sustainable transition in the building and construction sector.

It brought together sustainability experts and built environment leaders to connect global ambitions with local action; spelling out pathways for enhanced accountability and alignment between industry, policymakers, and the finance community to achieve their 2030 decarbonisation and resiliency goals.

As Platinum Sponsors of this event, Sidara showcased the innovation, collaboration and sustainability of our collective brands that call 150 Holborn home. Delegates of the summit had an opportunity to meet and greet with our in-house teams and discuss latest thinking and action to tackle our climate emergency.
