Public London: Activating the City is a free temporary exhibition on display at the London Centre, curated by the NLA. It showcases everything that is wonderful and challenging about public realm activation. Hassell has a few local and global projects featured as inspiration. In June, I was invited to speak at the launch symposium alongside Neal Shah (Greystar), David Fearon (AtkinsRéalis), Manijeh Verghese, and Ruchi Chakravarty. The event also included valuable insights from Samantha Jade (Saff) Williams, Sarah Castle, Clarisse Tavin, and Synthia Griffin. One of my key takeaways from the discussion was the importance of gathering evidence before, during, and after installing a temporary intervention. By consistently measuring both qualitative and quantitative indicators, short-term projects can significantly influence long-term outcomes. Moreover, it is crucial to approach an activation project with a clear purpose. What are you testing or prompting with a temporary public experience that cannot be achieved otherwise? Much like a stone thrown into water, a temporary installation may only be visible on the surface for a short time, but it can create ripples that reshape the surrounding landscape. 🔗 Read about our 5-year placemaking impact study with IPUT Real Estate Dublin here: https://lnkd.in/eg8vwKe6 🔗 Find out more about Hassell's installations and interventions here: https://lnkd.in/eYvQ2teB

'MIPIM is changing' is the big impression from this week's event in Cannes. It has a much more global feel than in the days when London dominated, with Saudi Arabia's three big hi-tech stands one of the main talking points. The UK's big REITs kept a low profile if they were there, and the global agencies focused more on promoting their continental European expertise than anything else. The British Property Federation and Melanie Leech flew the flag for the UK though, and did a sterling job in securing Housing Minister Lee Rowley for one showpiece speech. Thank you to everyone for congratulating me on my 30th MIPIM as flagged by Tim Burke and here are my five highlights which also show the festival's ever-changing nature. 1: First visit to MIPIM in 1992 with Building Design. Held from Thursday to Sunday and with c2,000 people in the Palais, what a way for a 25-year old to spend the working week. 2: 1996 and the dark clouds of the early 1990s crash were parting. Big scoop when George Iacobescu told us at Building Magazine about plans for the Canary Wharf Group we now see today. 3: Early-mid-2000s: A small media lunch with Terry Venables in the sun - a football fan's dream; followed a few years later by chairing a feisty Ken Bates vs Kevin McCabe Leeds v Sheffield debate 4: Appearing on Channel 4 News courtesy of Jennifer Rigby outside the Tchenguiz boat after the brothers' arrest (they were subsequently cleared of all allegations) 5: 2013-2019: A succession of great annual FTI Consulting parties - but which we now host in London I love MIPIM and look forward to many happy returns.

Sick of being degenerative? Try being regenerative! A flippant comment maybe, but there's no fence to sit on with this. Either our work makes an overall positive impact on the world, or it does not. But how do we move from 🔥 to 🌱? And what does that even mean in the context of the built environment? I tried to answer just that in my keynote for this year's IABSE Symposium in Manchester, which is now available to watch online: https://lnkd.in/d4pxB4cv I argue that: 😑 our pace of change since "declaring a climate emergency" has been insufficient 🐜that the biodiversity impacts of material extraction dwarfs the on-site equivalent ⏬ that the biggest change we can make today on every project is to #UseLessStuff 🏚️ that efficiency gains shouldn't impress you as much as wholescale reuse 🍕 that you don't clear up a pizza-based mess by ordering more pizza 🫂 and that even structural engineers have a role in increasing living standards around the world. I really enjoyed preparing this talk, it pushed me to consolidate my thinking around this important topic. So a big thank you to Ian Firth and the wider IABSE team for inviting me to present.

Dear colleagues! The team of our economic and analytical project The Global Tribune www.globaltribune.net we have created a new Events section (https://lnkd.in/eAjhxGYE ). In it, we will provide information on future exhibitions and conferences in the world in those industries that are represented on our website. The calendar of exhibitions and conferences is not a new option for you. As event organizers, you are constantly working with this. The difference is that we offer to be placed in the calendar, which provides detailed market analytics in the public domain. Very often, these are detailed reports on the state of the market, which makes the site visited, and this, in turn, gives a better influx of visitors than just an exhibition calendar. The first 50 events from any country will be hosted for free, after the free quota, you can request a commercial offer from us. Hurry up to take advantage of the free offer and give us information about your events. We need an English release and a 350x350 pixel event logo. An example of information is here https://lnkd.in/evgHzA8x We do not limit the volume of the text.
