Futurebuild will be the platform where 13 challenges are
tackled, including how to achieve a truly circular economy, how

partnerships and features.
As an official UK Government Innovation Partner, Futurebuild
will be hosting the Innovation Zone with the Department for
Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS) and Innovate UK.
At the Zone, BEIS will be showcasing the work of the Energy

provide useful solutions and guidance for visitors to take back
to the office.
The Waste Zone will return with new and expanded features,

academic and author Duncan Baker-Brown, the area will take
a unique beach hut format and showcase how waste can be a
valuable industry resource.
