CIBSE and IBPSA-England announce their partnership for 2025 Technical Symposium

CIBSE and IBPSA-England are pleased to unveil their partnership for the upcoming 2025 Technical Symposium. This joint effort merges two premier events in building performance and sustainable design: CIBSE’s annual Technical Symposium and IBPSA-England’s biennial Building Simulation and Optimisation event. Themed “Fit for 2050 – Achieving Net-Zero through Intelligent, Resilient and Sustainable Design in the Built Environment,” the CIBSE IBPSA-England Technical Symposium 2025 aims to serve as a platform for the latest research and innovations in sustainable practices. This partnership underscores a shared dedication to advancing knowledge and best practices in building performance.

Combined expertise: Leveraging the strengths of both organisations, the symposium promises a comprehensive programme covering a broad spectrum of topics related to building performance and sustainability.

Diverse formats: Attendees can expect engaging sessions including technical reviews, case studies and poster presentations, fostering dynamic discussions and knowledge exchange.

Networking opportunities: The event will provide numerous opportunities for participants to connect with industry peers, exchange insights and establish valuable professional relationships that can catalyse future collaborations and innovations.

Simon Parker, Managing Director of CIBSE Services said about this partnership: ‘At CIBSE, we’re excited to collaborate with IBPSA-England for the 2025 Technical Symposium.
