The 3rd annual Nordea GRESB Green Building Forum 174 min

New data streams providing asset-level intelligence on climate risk and resilience are revolutionising sustainable finance in the real estate sector. That’s why we are excited to have partnered with GRESB to hold our 3rd annual (and this time digital) Green Building Forum.

The interactive event focused on catalyzing dialogue between investors and issuers in breakout sessions, exploring multiple perspectives, and digging into practical examples of how climate risk and resilience are influencing the cost of capital and building valuations.
