Frankfurt – Let's Talk

The First GSG Conference Comes to Frankfurt


Architects and planners: mark your calendars. On October 29, 2024, Drees & Sommer will host the inaugural ESG conference "Frankfurt – Let's Talk." Recognized by the Hesse Chamber of Architects for 6 continuing education credits—just like its counterparts in Cologne, Hamburg, and Berlin—this conference brings together leading experts to tackle the construction and real estate sector's most pressing challenges, with particular attention to Frankfurt's distinctive real estate and financial landscape. Under the theme "Shaping the Future Together," renowned speakers will explore critical topics including sustainability, fund management, decarbonization, and purpose-driven leadership.

What sets this apart: ample time during plenary discussions for direct conversation with panelists and plenty of room for your questions.

The conference is built for connection—with dedicated networking time and knowledge sharing. Through three case studies, we'll explore solutions, examine challenges, and collaboratively develop actionable strategies. Real transformation happens through shared commitment and continuous dialogue.

Four compelling plenary sessions await:

▶ The 1.5-Degree Challenge – Who Pays the Price?
▶ Sustainable Investment in Practice – Retrofit or New Build?
▶ Collaboration in Sustainability – What Can We Learn From Each Other?
▶ Impact Leadership: How Purpose-Driven Values Are Reshaping Modern Business
