Climate Week Boston: A Developer Roundtable
The Future of Sustainable Building in Boston
There's a shift happening in how buildings go up in this city. New materials. New methods. New technology that didn't exist two years ago. The companies behind it are small, they're moving fast, and they're changing the game.
During Climate Week Boston, The Union is hosting a developer roundtable focused on the intersection of sustainability and real estate development. We'll hear from builders and developers who are actually implementing these changes on their projects — what's working, what's not, and what's next.

- 6:30 PM — Roundtable discussion: sustainable building practices in Boston
- 7:30 PM — Open Q&A
- 8:00 PM - 9:00 PM — Networking and continued conversation
