The programme featured a range of insightful presentations and expert-led discussions focused on regulatory change, emerging technologies and the future of housing standards. Delegates heard from Richard Kinloch, Group Development Director at Keystone Group, alongside distinguished guest speakers Richard Smith, Head of Standards, Innovation & Research at NHBC and Christopher Gaze, Associate at Future Homes Hub. Together, they provided valuable perspectives on the Future Homes Standard and explored the opportunities and challenges shaping the future of the built environment.
