We recently hosted our first BRPD event ‘Unlocking Gateway 2’ from the London office.

 

To a packed room of developers, contractors and project managers, our Studio Director Nick Keightley presented our journey to Gateway approval and how our new build student accommodation scheme in Nottingham became one of the first new-build HRB approvals in the country.

With a presentation full of lessons learned, tips and tricks and practical insights, Nick set out how to most efficiently and effectively work with the regulator and achieve a successful outcome. Our discussion panel then unpacked practical applications and other perspectives for our audience, eager to unlock and understand the Building Safety Act and achieving Gateway 2.

 

A big thank you to our brilliant panel of James Lane, Mark Jones and Mark Woodrow for offering their insight, as well as a thank you to our host and London Studio Director Leo Ward.

We will be delivering this event again at the end of the summer, but you don’t have to wait until then if this sounds useful. Contact us here to see how our proven strategies to achieve Gateway 2 consent can benefit your new build or refurbishment project.
