Global expansion and global standard within buildings An emissions calculator that also includes scope free emissions The electrification of bikes and all things on wheels. An incredible opportunity and an area that currently isn't really getting much attention. “The main driver for this is the mindset change. I think building owners have realized the importance of these services from a sustainability point of view, but now also from a business case point of view. I think they realize that their tenants actually want much better cycle facilities or active travel facilities. It can actually help them attract tenants, whether it's a commercial office or whether it's a residential building.” -James Nash Get the episode transcript here!!
