The masterclass is being led by an award-winning team from The Institute of Material Flow Management (IfaS) based in Germany. Their expertise and research focuses on energy and resource efficiency.

This a great opportunity for businesses to learn how they can improve on heating and cooling systems, lighting, and explore other technology such as solar PV.
