Future of Buildings Project
Over 9 months the EDHEC FIT Chair is bringing together a group of non-competing partners to work alongside 200 students in exploring The Future of Buildings. Those companies as well as the start-ups involved during the project are willing to play a role in creating a better environmental impact for the building industry
The 2021 project is marked by social and economic changes brought about by the pandemic and will be addressing the major climate change issues and new European regulations which are heavily impacting the building industry. Although facing massive challenges, opportunities are wide-ranging and to embrace circularity and technological developments might be the beginning of an answer to increase the sector’s attractiveness.
If you would like to join the project and create desirable scenarios for The Future of Buildings, we look forward to starting a conversation with your company.
We’re delighted to share with you the final report from the 2020 FIT to Fly / Future of Air Travel project, which brought together partners from across the Aviation industry along with EDHEC students under the leadership of the EDHEC FIT Chair to provide innovative solutions to the air travel crisis caused by the pandemic.
