What does the next decade of development mean for Ipswich, Norwich and Chelmsford?

East of England Growth & Regeneration: Delivering Sustainable Places

Join built environment professionals from across the East of England for an insightful CPD event exploring how some of the region's most significant growth and regeneration projects are being planned and delivered.

From Ipswich's emerging Local Plan and town centre regeneration ambitions, to major regeneration opportunities in Norwich and Chelmsford's new Garden Community, our speakers will examine the opportunities, challenges and infrastructure required to support sustainable development and thriving communities.

The event will conclude with a panel discussion examining one of the industry's most pressing questions:

Can we deliver housing growth and regeneration without creating infrastructure problems?

This event will be of interest to developers, planners, architects, surveyors, engineers, contractors, local authority professionals and others working across the built environment.
