About the CBC events

The CBC's events are strategic and tailored, dealing with topical themes and challenges in the construction industry. They explore the potential disruption and applications of DLT and blockchain in the built environment and bring together leading industry and academic practitioners of the field to share and debate new knowledge.

The Construction Blockchain Consortium (CBC)

The Construction Blockchain Consortium was established to develop knowledge transfer, arrange commercial and academic presentations, assess and test commercial services and technology, conduct research, and drive policy, regulation and understanding of the consequences of Blockchain and other emerging technologies in the Built Environment. CBC is led by the UCL Department of Computer Science and The Bartlett Faculty of the Built Environment. We also investigate the development of open source tools on behalf of the industry and to encourage application developers to build proprietary technology and services to deliver sustainable construction solutions.

 The Bartlett Faculty of the Built Environment

The Bartlett Faculty of the Built Environment (or The Bartlett) is the academic centre for the study of the built environment at University College London, the oldest institution of University of London. It is home to the Bartlett Schools of Architecture, Planning, and Construction and Project Management, among others. UCL was ranked highest in the world for the "Architecture / Built Environment" category in the 2019 QS World University Rankings.
