Green Building Council of South Africa annual convention
26th - 28th October 2011
Cape Town International Convention Centre (CTICC)
The Green Building Council of South Africa (GBCSA) is a neutral and representative body. It is the only independent, non-profit, membership-based organisation that promotes, encourages and facilitates green building in the South African property and construction industry.
Since 2008 the GBCSA has hosted an annual conference in Cape Town. This year will be the fourth conference, running from the 26th - 28th October 2011 at the Cape Town International Convention Centre (CTICC).
The official Green Building Council of South Africa (GBCSA) Convention is South Africa’s leading green building event and conference, providing access to the latest, cutting edge information via international and local experts. The convention provides an inspirational platform for education, knowledge sharing and networking concerning sustainability and the built environment.
Here key issues surrounding sustainability, construction and the built environment are examined, from big picture debates and philosophy through to more technical challenges & solutions. Topics will cover emerging solutions and new thinking, right through to Green Star SA Rating Tools and Government Policy updates.
The convention consists of a pre-conference education day: offering more detailed seminars and workshops working in a small group with a local or international expert. This is followed by two days of key note speeches, panel discussions and facilitated debates lead by local and international experts. The convention provides numerous networking opportunities by way of an opening cocktail function for all exhibitors, speakers and delegates and a formal convention dinner in addition to the exhibition hall.
For delegates, the GBCSA Convention affords access to important sources of inspiration, education, training, knowledge sharing and networking. In addition the sizeable exhibition hall showcases the latest in sustainable and green products and materials, providing an opportunity to discover new suppliers and contacts.
For exhibitors, the GBCSA Convention is a trusted source of high quality contacts and access to the valuable projects across the country, with approximately 700 built industry professionals attending the GBCSA Convention 2010. Exhibitors can choose from a variety of stand displays.
For sponsors and advertisers, the GBCSA Convention offers targeted brand exposure to progressive professionals in the built environment industry.

Congratulations to all Board, Technical and general members on the successful launch of the Green Building Council of South Africa….and the more recent development of Green Star SA Office V1.
ecospecifier is pleased to have launched in SA and to now be a member … we look forward to a long and fruitful association.
ecospecifier in Australia was launched over 6 years ago around the same time as the Green Building Council of Australia and the close relationship we developed with the GBCAustralia has made implementation and application green buildings in Australia easier and faster for the whole industry.
When GBCAustralia launched Green Star in Australia and Government instrumentalities launched other programs, ecospecifier launched our GreenRate Product Pre-assessment process for verifying products against both Green Star Technical Manual criteria and other Guidelines.
As GBCAustralia developed its Green Star system and tools, we developed assessment services to mirror industry needs and we now assess against all of their current Green Star tools.
We look forward to a similar progression and cooperation as GBCSA grows and develops new tools as we are sure it will.
We look forward to a greener future together.
regards,
The ecospecifier SA Team
