Taking the Retrofit discussion global and building on the success of our last GVis Event in July we would like to invite you to a unique web enabled Retrofitting Buildings event hosted by Leeds Metropolitan's Centre for Knowledge Exchange.

Delegates will:  

• Discover the lessons learnt on the Empire States Building Retrofit Project and learn several key lessons for the retrofit of large multi-tenant commercial office buildings.
• Understand the Business opportunities of the UK Retrofit Market.
• Participate in two hands on expert roundtables of their choice on Occupant behaviour, Low Carbon Workplaces , The Green Deal , or Leeds Metropolitan Estates Retrofit project.
• Experience a lively Pecha Kucha presentation showcase * covering different aspects of Retrofitting (Historical Buildings , Renewable technologies, case studies).

The event will be blogged and discussed live across social media to encourage perspectives from international individuals and organisations that may not be able to attend in person, to give Leeds businesses a wider business vision. The hashtag for the event is #GVis2011
