In this episode, Ashurst Risk Advisory Director Michael Duggan and Partner in the Project and Energy Transition Team, Andrew McCormack are interviewed by Ashurst’s Global Leader Client Centre of Excellence Kim Wiegand, about their opinions and insights into the sustainable infrastructure themes and measures to come out of the Brisbane 2032 Master Plan and recently released Elevate 2042 consultation paper, including sustainable stadium developments, transport and environmental and social stewardship initiatives.

Andrew talks about some of the recent sustainable stadium developments in Australia and overseas that the 2032 Brisbane Games can look to as benchmarks for sustainability (“Suncorp Stadium features energy-efficient lighting, water-efficient fixtures and a rainwater harvesting system for irrigation”). Michael also speaks about what the infrastructure legacy of the Games looks like sharing the four themes of the Elevate 2042 consultation paper, (“The key to the final legacy plan will be in identifying how these four themes are integrated to enable impact.”)

This episode is part of Ashurst’s Beyond 2032 podcast mini-series, that examines the range of important issues which touch on the preparations for, delivery of, and legacy flowing from the 2032 Games.
