How is the Future Thinker of the Year decided?
A shortlist will be asked to submit a three minute video putting forward their ideas on green building in Aotearoa (check out last year’s videos here).
These will then be considered alongside the initial written applications by our panel of industry experts.
The judges will agree four finalists who will be invited to speak at the awards evening where the Future Thinker of the Year will be decided.
The 2021 awards evening will be held on Tuesday 13 April at AUT.
