NextGen Rising: Festive networking and future thinking

Networking

Tuesday 02 December 2025
18:30 - 20:30

Join us at City Hall for a festive evening of networking and ideas and help shape the forthcoming NextGen Rising recommendations paper.
Come and be part of this special NextGen networking and ideas evening exploring how we can build better career pathways, stronger skills, and more inclusive workplaces in London’s built environment. Through short provocations, group discussions and a sharing wall of ideas, your voice will help shape the forthcoming NextGen Rising recommendations paper.

Part of our NextGen member networking series - this event will bring together new and familiar faces from the NLA NextGen community, for an opportunity to connect with peers from across all sectors of the built environment.

Book your place and connect with likeminded people from across the built environment industry, and be part of NextGen Rising.

* Please note due to the popularity of this event there is a limit of 4 attendees per organisation.
