London’s built environment is being transformed - and the technology making it all possible is arriving faster than many realise.

From digital twin models to low-carbon material production, and smarter energy systems to large-scale retrofits of historic buildings, a new set of digital tools is changing what’s possible for the city’s infrastructure. The question is no longer whether London can adapt - it’s how.

But technology alone won’t shape the future of London - people do. As these tools become more powerful, the conversation about what drives these civic changes and who benefits from them matters more than ever.

Join us for our penultimate Future London discussion, as we explore how emerging technologies are reshaping the buildings, streets and green spaces around us, and what it means for the city’s future.
