Canada’s green building conference
June 17-19, 2026 | Montréal, QC
After a successful conference in Vancouver in 2025, Building Lasting Change™ will be in Montréal in 2026. Mark your calendars and join us for the latest industry insights needed to accelerate high-value, resilient and zero-carbon buildings.
With rising commitments to decarbonize and futureproof assets, demand for green buildings is growing. This industry shift creates opportunities to rethink how we design, construct, operate and finance building and retrofit projects. Today, architects, owners, occupiers, and investors are prioritizing green building to achieve ESG commitments, increase asset value, reduce operational expenses, and stay ahead of evolving standards and regulations.
Building Lasting Change™ (BLC) offers the insights and connections you need to navigate this market transition. Every year, industry leaders join us for a deep dive into decarbonization drivers, financing models, regulatory shifts, and practical strategies to unlock the value of green buildings.
