Description

In this special Futurebuild Podcast episode, recorded live at BE-ST Fest in Glasgow, Martin Hurn speaks with two of the key voices driving retrofit and innovation in Scotland.


First, Martin is joined by Caitriona Jordan, Associate Director of Retrofit & Energy Efficiency at Built Environment – Smarter Transformation (BE-ST).  Caitriona shares insights into the ambitious Retrofit Scotland programme launched at the event, the challenges and opportunities facing Scotland’s built environment, and how BE-ST is leading the way with low-carbon materials, skills training, and a just transition.


Later, we hear from Lynsey Brydson, Impact Programmes Director, Built Environment – Smarter Transformation (BE-ST), who reflects on 10 years of BE-ST, innovation in timber construction, and how diversity, collaboration, and regional policy are shaping a more inclusive and sustainable future.


From community engagement to practical training, this episode captures the energy, ambition, and impact of BE-ST Fest’s International Retrofit Conference.
