BAM announced as Headline Sponsor of the Sustainability Arena at London Build 2026
London Build, the UK's largest and most influential construction and design show, has announced BAM UK & Ireland as the Headline Sponsor of the Sustainability Arena at London Build 2026, taking place on 25–26 November at Excel London.
Created in collaboration between London Build and elementalLONDON, the Sustainability Arena will host two days of discussion on the industry's biggest sustainability challenges and opportunities. Sessions will explore topics including decarbonisation, nature recovery, energy efficiency, building performance, climate resilience and the delivery of net zero goals.
As Headline Sponsor, BAM UK & Ireland will highlight the progress made during the first year of its strategic partnership with the Eden Project, demonstrating how nature recovery can be embedded into construction projects.
On Thursday 26 November, BAM UK & Ireland and the Eden Project will host a joint panel discussion - Nature Recovery in Construction: One Year On - exploring lessons from the partnership and discussing how nature-positive approaches can help deliver better outcomes for communities and for nature.
"The challenges facing our industry - from decarbonisation and climate resilience to nature recovery - can only be tackled through collaboration. That's why we're proud to sponsor the Sustainability Arena and work alongside London Build to create a platform for conversations and collaboration.
John Wilkinson Chief Operating Officer at BAM UK & Ireland
John went on to say "As we approach the first anniversary of our partnership with the Eden Project, we're looking forward to sharing what we've learned about putting nature recovery at the heart of construction.”
Dan James, Development Director at the Eden Project, said:
"The built environment has a vital role to play in restoring nature, not just reducing its impact. Our partnership with BAM demonstrates how nature recovery can be embedded into the way we design, build and manage places, creating healthier environments for people alongside thriving ecosystems. We're looking forward to sharing what we've learned over the past year and exploring how collaboration across the sector can help make nature-positive construction the norm”
