About the Event

Help shape the future of construction reuse in Scotland – and take away practical insights you can use immediately.

Join us for an interactive stakeholder engagement workshop as part of the TRACE Project, funded by the Scotland Beyond Net Zero Seed Fund. This initiative focuses on accelerating the adoption of circular economy practices across Scotland. Led by researchers from Robert Gordon University and Heriot-Watt University, in partnership with the Stirling Reuse Hub we are co-creating a digital prototype for a construction reuse hub designed for a construction reuse hub that makes material reuse more accessible, traceable, and profitable.

This isn't a presentation – it's a working session where your expertise directly shapes real solutions. We're developing a digital marketplace that integrates blockchain, IoT, material passports, and QR codes with interfaces designed for both expert and non-expert users. Your input will ensure it actually works for your needs.

Why Attend?

Get insights into the project and hear from experts in the field.
Share your insights on reuse practices, barriers, and opportunities in construction.
Co-design solutions on the platform being designed: reflect on your real-world needs and priorities.
Network and connect with peers across industry, policy, and academia.
Contribute to research that aims to make reuse more accessible, traceable, and scalable.

Who Should Attend?
