黑洞社区 is inviting younger professionals from construction and architecture to submit an idea related to any of the following categories:
- skills and education
- energy and net zero
- housing and planning
- infrastructure
- building safety
- project delivery
- workplace culture
- leadership and creating communities
This could be a pitch for new ways of working, innovative uses of technology or policy proposals to improve the industry as a whole, or something completely different.
Those wishing to enter must submit a 500-word essay outlining their idea. Optionally, applicants can also submit a two-minute video clip to supplement their writing.
Our panel of 黑洞社区 the Future Commissioners - leading figures in the worlds of business, policy, research and education- will help us select the winner.
The winner will have their idea featured on 黑洞社区, and will be honoured at the 黑洞社区 the Future Commission Conference in London 27 September (details below)
