This event forms a key part of the NLA NextGen programme, dedicated to supporting the next generations career progression and promoting emerging talent from across the built environment.

You’ll have the opportunity to meet with mentors from a cross-sector of the built environment throughout the evening, and there will be ample opportunity for networking.

Confirmed mentors include Marie-Louise Schembri (Sustainability Director, Hilson Moran), Kiru Balson (Principal Sustainability Consultant, Max Fordham), Maliha Haque (Associate, LOM architecture and design), Stuart Cade (Partner, Rick Mather Architects), David Storring (Director, Morris+Company), Hugo Dring (Project Director, Buro Four), Nathalie Bergvall (Director, John Robertson Architects), Ben Adams (Founding Director, Ben Adams Architects), and Laura Cassullo (Regional Director, Stride Treglown).

Spaces are limited so please only book a place if you can attend. Demand is high and we therefore ask you to let us know should you be unable to make it on the evening. We will be keeping a waitlist and those who are first on the waitlist will be contacted should spaces become available.

Please email Natasha Duffy natasha.duffy@nla.london to join the waitlist.
