About the conference

The AJ Retrofit Live conference is returning for the third year, uniting architects, their built environment colleagues, clients, and lawmakers to identify the best retrofit and circular economy practices and discuss the transformational changes we need to see to upgrade the built environment in line with whole-life carbon principles.

Our one-day conference will build on the momentum of the RetroFirst agenda, exploring a range of conversations that are crucial to the retrofit conversation as a catalyst for change.

New for 2024 | Circular Build: The Future of Sustainable Innovation

Formerly known as WasteBuild Zero, Circular Build is a community of innovators that exists to redefine the future of sustainable construction. In 2024 it will be making its London debut and co-locating with Retrofit Live.

We want the 2024 iteration to build on the momentum achieved from the last two editions which took place in Amsterdam. Prepare to witness the convergence of leading international circular economy manufacturers and solutions with the UK's most visionary architects and specifiers.
