Description
Back for 2026, the Institute’s Mood of the Nation webinar returns at a time when the construction sector continues to navigate change. Over the past 12 months, we’ve seen shifts in market conditions, project demand, and early signs of recovery in some areas, while uncertainty remains across the broader economic and political landscape.
Join the Institute’s industry leaders as we take stock of where things stand mid-2026. This session will explore what has changed over the past year, the challenges still facing the sector, and the opportunities emerging as businesses adapt to a new operating environment shaped by fuel volatility, geopolitical tensions, and an upcoming general election.
Hear from a cross-section of industry voices as we reflect on the cyclical nature of construction, discuss the realities shaping decision-making right now, and consider what resilience and readiness look like in the months ahead.
