The conference proceedings, public forum and conference presentations are available here.
The Westman Centre also supported Dr. Tsenkova's event on “Affordable Housing & Design Innovation”, “Housing & Inclusive Cities”, and “The Future of Affordable Housing” in October 2019.
Without open, trusted and transparent collaboration between industry and academia, our economy will not be able to meet its potential. It is on us as business leaders to stay vested and committed to continuous learning.
