Urban Innovation: Exploring the Future of Buildings

Rebuilding our urban infrastructure means more than simply replacing old with new. It will require new ways to thinking about the design, performance and economics of the places where we live, work and play.

Join us this evening, Tuesday November 29th, at 6pm in room 426 of the Questrom School of Business, for a presentation by Peter Richner, Deputy CEO and intellectual father of NEST at Empa, the Swiss National Lab for Materials Science & Technology, followed by a panel discussion to discuss the future of innovative building technologies.

Moderated by Paul McManus, Lecturer in the Questrom School of Business, this event will feature panelists:

• Michael Gevelber – Associate Professor, Mechanical Engineering Department, Boston University
• Jason Jewhurst – Principal, Bruner / Cott Architects
