_shift 2025

Now in its fourth year, the conference returns to Newcastle University’s Henry Daysh Building on Wednesday, 5th November 2025. This free, one-day event brings together industry leaders, researchers, and emerging voices to share ideas and accelerate action.

This year’s programme will explore themes ranging from activism and policy to material innovation, circular economy thinking, and more. A highlight will be the official launch of a pioneering open-access tool designed to radically cut whole-life carbon, empowering architects and the wider industry alike.

Join us at _shift: where bold ideas and practical solutions come together to help shape a net zero-future.
