Education & Health

Development in London’s education and medical buildings

London is uniquely positioned within the Golden Triangle, the region that connects the capital to Oxford and Cambridge. This is home to the greatest biosciences cluster in Europe and home to five world leading universities. As innovation districts, such as the Ox-Cam Arc continue to grow and develop, it is crucial to establish accessible and affordable workspaces, laboratories and environments that can support high quality research.

With the fast-changing healthcare sector, what are the key priorities to deliver healthcare buildings that showcase best practice in design, health, and adaptability? How can healthcare buildings be designed around their workforce, and engage with local businesses and communities?

Within the education sector, how can existing educational buildings be retrofitted to respond to new learning patterns and create healthy spaces that encourage students and staff to return to learning environments with wellbeing in mind?

This year-round programme brings together the built environment sector to discuss

the future needs of the education, healthcare and knowledge economy sectors.
