We're heading to Cannes soon to launch the Reduction Roadmap on a global scale. Join us at the Global Solutions event, where our Co-founder and Creative Director, Sinus Lynge, along with Mikkel Schlesinger from CEBRA and Steffen Maagaard from Artelia will discuss solutions and business models that can accelerate the green transition of the construction sector.

Also, VELUX, EFFEKT and Artelia’s Living Places Copenhagen has been shortlisted by the jury of the MIPIM Awards 2024 in the category Best residential project for seeking to enhance the built environment’s prospects, in line with ESG goals. The finalists will be showcased in the MIPIM Awards Gallery located in the heart of the exhibition area.

The Global Solutions event will bring together an array of interdisciplinary experts and thought leaders to share their insights on actionable strategies for navigating the challenges posed by climate change within the built environment.

As the director of the Sustainable Urban Planning and Architecture program at C40, Hélène Chartier will share expert insights and analysis from her work with urban areas confronting and adapting to the climate crisis. In her presentation she will dive into the latest data on climate adaptation and highlight innovative actions that cities like Copenhagen and Paris are implementing to confront environmental challenges.

Victoria Burrows from Kompas VC and previously Director, Advancing Net Zero at the World Green Building Council will also join the panel by sharing her insights and casting a light on the role of risk capital when it comes to derisking the climate transition.

The panel will be moderated by Michael Ambjørn, CEO of PropTech Denmark.
