BASE London is being organised in conjunction with the London Development Agency on May 27th at the ExCel Centre.

The Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, will deliver a keynote speech at 10am, to outline his plans for London's ambition to become a world leading sustainable city.

Break-out sessions and seminars will fill the day, punctuated by other keynotes, and panel sessions. Tim Smit, founder of the Eden Project, and one of the country's foremost green entrepreneurs, joins a late morning session designed to identify the practicalities to achieving a sustainable economy.
