Since its launch in 2005 Ecobuild has established itself as the biggest event in the world for sustainable design, construction and the built environment. During that time it has roughly doubled in size every year.

The 2010 event will take place at Earls Court from 2-4 March. As usual it will feature a number of innovations: for instance, for the first time it will have a Fringe mounting a number of events peripheral to the main exhibition and conference.

The list of conference speakers is also innovative, with industry figures joining the debate with politicians, environmental campaigners, scientists and some less predictable personalities – such as the Bishop of Liverpool and impressionist Alastair McGowan.

Ecobuild strives to reflect the preoccupations of the sector it serves – championing the emerging green construction movement at its start, engaging and encouraging debate and discussion and now seeking out and highlighting the continuing opportunities for sustainable construction.

Ecobuild is also the definitive source of information for specifiers across UK construction and beyond: 34,617 visitors attended last year.
