The 2026 GBCSA Green Building Convention was a place to connect, learn, and share ideas. It also solidified our CEO Georgina Smit’s vision for 2030.
We’ve achieved so much in nearly 20 years, with over 1500 buildings certified. And we’re just getting started. #TheGreenRevolution
Thank you to each of the over 800 delegates who attended our 19th GBCSA Green Building Convention.

#GBC2026 was an incredible event thanks to @idnaAfrica They take the big dreams and ideas we have for Green Building Convention, and make it a reality, through world-class event planning and delivery. Thank you IDNA for your hard work!
To every delegate and speaker, sponsor and green champion, who joined the 2026 GBCSA Green Building Convention:
It was a joy and a privilege to facilitate the rich discussions and promising connections made as we work towards our shared sustainability goals.
The JW Brand Solutions team (Johan Winterbach & Jaco Wolmarans) shot the lights out with these photos —capturing the landscape-shifting discussions, the laughs we shared, and moments in between.
We’ve opened up the event photo gallery for all to enjoy: jwbrandsolutions.ourpixo.com…

Thank you to lead sponsor Rand Water for their support of the GBCSA Green Building Convention for the fourth consecutive year.
@Rand_Water’s dynamic #BlueIsTheNewGreen exhibit shared their mission of moving away from the idea of being water consumers, towards water stewardship.
Thank you to lead sponsor Balwin Properties for their continued support of the GBCSA Green Building Convention!
