🌍 Immersed in Sustainability and the Circular Economy! 🌍 Last night, we dived deep into sustainability at the heart of Antwerp 🌆, hosted at the inspiring A-Tower in Silver Square—a dynamic co-working space. At IFMA, we’re all about knowledge sharing, and we were thrilled to have Matt Tucker, Global Director of Research, present his report on "Circular FM: The Role of the Circular Economy in Facility Management." 📊 Did you know? In 2024, Earth Overshoot Day was on August 1st—and for Belgium? As early as March 23rd! This means Belgium would need 4 planets to sustain our lifestyle. Considering that 40% of global CO2 emissions come from the built environment, it’s time for action! 🌱 Curious? You can download the full report here: https://lnkd.in/gyQ2tFkP We’re already looking forward to the next event! On November 19th, WeHub will host a webinar on "The Work Environment as an Engine for Knowledge Sharing." 📅 Stay tuned! #ifma #esg #sustainability #circulareconomy #facilitymanagement #knowledgesharing #builtenvironment #futureproof

About us
The IFMA Belgium Chapter has the goal and ambition to be the absolute FM Thought Leader on the strategic role of FM in Belgium. The Chapter will leverage the Belgian Facility Management community by focusing on the human/build experience, qualitative knowledge exchange, strategic insights, ambitious international networking, and the mentoring of young professionals and students. It’s aim is to promote an innovative, sustainable and people-oriented future through intelligent and hybrid infrastructures and actively lobbying with local policy makers. And having fun while at it. The Belgium Chapter will perform on both national and international level by using the IFMA global network which is the world's largest and most widely recognized association for facility management professionals, supporting over 20,000 members in more than 100 countries. All together we will lead the future of the built environment to make the world a better place. IFMA Belgium will advance the collective knowledge, value and growth for FM professionals and all related parties so they can perform at the highest level. The IFMA Belgium Chapter has 4 core ambitions: 1. We connect our members by means of networking, mentoring and career supporting activities. 2. We will inspire the FM community to share and boost knowledge. 3. We will lead the conversation with policy makers to raise awareness around the impact of our industry on the general economy and influence local legislation. 4. We will contribute to the expansion of the IFMA Belgian network by using our strong international relations to the benefit of our members. All these items will be presented throughout the entire year by means of events, webinars, training or learning sessions and knowledge sharing.
