After six years, the World Green Infrastructure Congress (WGIC) will finally take place again - from 27 to 29 June 2023 in Berlin!
The last World Congress, also held in Berlin, was fully booked with over 800 participants from 44 countries. The aim is to follow-up on the successful 2017 congress with a hybrid event (Berlin and online) in order to reach even more participants.
The three-day World Congress, which is addressed to planners, contractors, local-, state- and federal politicians, investors and companies in the sector, is divided into two days of expert congress and one day of excursions.
The welcome speeches by the Parliamentary State Secretary Elisabeth Kaiser (Federal Ministry for Housing, Urban Development and Building) and Permanent Secretary Britta Behrendt (Senate Department for the Environment, Urban Mobility, Consumer Protection and Climate Action), as well as keynote speeches by German architect Christoph Ingenhoven and French botanist Patrick Blanc, will be a brilliant start to the congress on 27 June 2023 in Berlin.
The programme with over 100 speakers from 29 countries has been finalized and promises interesting congress days that will provide an overview of what is currently taking place in the field of greening buildings worldwide.
The accompanying trade exhibition, which provides a good overview of various products, systems and services in the industry, is almost fully booked with over 50 exhibitors. It is another highlight of the event.
The organizer is the Bundesverband GebäudeGrün e.V. (BuGG), supported by international and national partners, as well as 23 congress and 10 media partners.
The World Congress is further supported by 12 gold and 9 silver sponsors.
