This month saw 60 built environment professionals from across the industry come together at G&T’s London HQ for the NLA NextGen Speed Mentoring 2018.

Speed mentoring is an invaluable way for the younger generation to have one-to-one conversations with senior industry figures. Throughout the evening each mentee spent 15 minutes with a variety of experienced industry experts, discussing challenges within the construction industry and receiving valuable career advice.
