I have had some correspondence with a young Indian engineering student, Avadhut Joshi, on some forums and he has sent me details of a conference on "Remaking Sustainable Cities in the Vertical Age" conducted by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat. India is a large country but with an enormous population, it has no choice but to build skywards. People need homes and as the country becomes steadily more affluent,
In recent weeks there has been some very good news coming out of India and I think this is really good stuff. The website does not talk about who the exhibitors will be at the conference, but, whoever exhibits now, there is going to be a buzz about new technology in this field and that can only be a good thing. With interested young people in India looking at these very interesting areas, the future should be good.
My thanks to Avadhut for this information. I have requested him to write a report if he attends the conference. I shall feature it here with credit to him if he does find time to write it.
