Yet the question remains current: what do investments in sustainable offices actually deliver?rnrnDuring this session, we discuss the financial, societal and strategic value of sustainable office buildings. What does decarbonisation mean for the attractiveness of real estate, operating costs, value development and lettability?

Which investments genuinely create value? How do financiers, real estate investors and occupiers view sustainable buildings? And which decisions made today make the difference for tomorrow?
