Programme Partner
UK Architects Declare
We have just over a decade to address global environmental emergencies and avoid catastrophic damage to the natural world. Yet construction, infrastructure and urban development continue to expand, increasing greenhouse gas emissions and habitat loss. Meeting society’s needs within ecological boundaries demands a fundamental shift in how we design and build. Built Environment Declares calls on everyone across the sector to commit to action, international cooperation, knowledge sharing and stronger advocacy. The coming years will shape our collective future. Now is the time to act.

Become a Partner
Regenerative Design 2026 is a month-long programme of exhibitions and events bringing the whole of the built environment to foster communication and collaboration and to drive meaningful change. It will bring together developers, architects, engineers, contractors and policymakers all willing to compare notes, share what is and isn’t working, and build on each other’s thinking. Partnering with Regenerative Design 2026 puts your organisation inside that knowledge exchange, at the point where it can actually shift practice.
Taking place throughout October 2026 at The Building Centre in central London, the programme combines a curated exhibition of regenerative projects with a series of seminars, roundtables, panel discussions and networking events exploring the ideas, innovations and collaborations shaping the future of a regenerative built environment.
The programme is designed to attract a senior cross-sector audience from across the built environment, bringing together developers, clients, investors, architects, engineers, contractors, manufacturers, planners, policymakers, local authorities, consultants, researchers and industry bodies.
By creating a platform for these organisations to engage with one another, Regenerative Design aims to encourage the collaboration needed to move regenerative thinking from ambition into practical delivery.
Why partner
Partnering means helping shape the conversation, not observing it. You’ll work with us to frame the questions a seminar or panel puts to the industry, bring your own project experience into the room as a contribution rather than a pitch, and connect with the organisations across the value chain whose collaboration is what turns regenerative thinking into practical delivery. It’s a chance to test your thinking against your peers, and to be part of setting the direction the sector moves in next.
Partnership levels
We work with organisations across a range of levels of involvement, from those who want to help lead and frame a strand of the programme, through to those looking to bring their expertise to a single session or discussion. Each partnership is shaped around what your organisation can contribute and where you want to spend your time, rather than a fixed package.
Get in touch
If you would like to talk about where your organisation might fit, we would welcome the conversation. Contact Toby Redington, Head of Partnerships, at toby.r@architecturetoday.co.uk, or Clive Waite, Business Development Manager, at clive.w@architecturetoday.co.uk and we can talk about how you can shape the programme and get involved.
