English Partnerships, the national regeneration agency, will have an interactive stand, and speakers at three key sessions, at the THINK 07 Conference being held at ExCel London, 1-3 May 2007.
The English Partnerships’ stand – J22 – will be located in the main hall, where the focal point will be the sustainable re-Generation Game, ‘Building Communities’.
What exactly are the key ingredients of sustainable re-Generation? Are people more important than buildings? Or are shops more important than open green spaces? We think we know, but do you? It’s time to rethink the debate.
So put together a team, come on down and have a go at ‘Building Communities’. Your team could be the lucky winners of a state of the art Brompton bike – the ultimate in sustainable transport!
