Assemble Media Group has launched a brand new global event for architects as part of its World Architecture 100 brand.

WA100 Live launches on Tuesday 22nd February 2022 and is focused on gaining insight from some of the biggest international clients and architects about the reality of working in the global arena. It will assess global trends and prospects for 2022 and the key design trends and sectors as well as the regions to watch in 2022 and beyond. WA100 Live is an expansion of Building Design’s long standing research supplement, the World Architect 100, which is an annual survey of the top 100 global architecture practices. It also forms part of Assemble’s newly launched, dedicated International Programme which runs across Building, Building Design and Housing Today.

Tom Broughton, Managing Director of Assemble, said: “This is a really exciting development for us and WA100 live is the next logical step in the development of our international community for built environment professionals – connecting architects and their partners, clients and supply chains digitally and seamlessly.

He added: “It is also in response to new key markets opening up further to international trade and is an initiative we’re really excited about. And as soon as the international market opens up fully again and Covid restrictions are lifted we look forward to bringing the community together in a live environment once again too.”
