In this episode, we pinpoint the business trends and legal issues that will shape the UK’s construction landscape in 2025. From challenges and risks to opportunities and innovations, our expert panel covers a range of ground. Insolvency risk. Legislative developments. Labour shortages. Difficulties like these made 2024 a challenging year for many in the UK’s construction sector. So what can we expect in 2025? In this episode, we tackle a number of topics. Ashurst colleagues Sadia McEvoy, Chris Whitehouse and Matt Pearson discuss the still-unfolding impacts of the Building Safety Act, the warning signs of construction insolvencies, the sector’s bid to meet net-zero targets, how modular construction might address productivity and labour issues, the legislative changes to watch, and the potential upside of more collaborative procurement strategies.
