Urban Sustainability Founders Walk & Talk

Wednesdays | 6:30–8:30 PM | Singapore River

Your mid-week movement + conversation reset.

This is not “just a walk.”

This is the low-barrier entry into the BCIURS community — a cross-disciplinary network reimagining how we build, live and create future townships.

🔷 What is River Re-Cycle?

Part of:

BCIURS 2026 – Walk. Talk. Build. Create.

A recurring outdoor meet-up for:

• Architects & engineers
• Urban planners & developers
• Modular & retrofit professionals
• ESG & sustainability founders
• Artists, musicians & placemakers
• Citizens who care about how cities evolve

If you live under a roof, you qualify.

🔷 Format (90–120 min, flexible)

• 20–30 min light riverside movement
• 40 min discussion stop
• 30–60 min optional coffee / beer

Default sporty loop:
Jiak Kim Bridge → Sultan Mosque side → Boat Quay → Back

Route may adapt depending on group energy.
Speed follows the slowest.

Join anytime.
Live location shared in WhatsApp.

🔷 Monthly Theme Rotation

Each month carries a soft focus:

1. Modular & Prefab Futures
2. Maintenance & Energy Retrofit (SG Reality)
3. Biomaterials & Deep Tech
4. Circular Townships (Rubanisation)
5. Youth & Future Builders
6. Creative Placemaking (music, culture & space)

No slides.
No panels.
No aggressive business pitching.

Just intelligent movement + constructive dialogue.

🔷 Why This Exists

Singapore has many conferences.

Few have:

• honest cross-disciplinary conversation
• zero-toxicity dialogue
• practical sustainability thinking
• intergenerational inclusion

We are building:

A trust network before a transaction network.

🔷 What We Explore

• Environment, climate & practical resilience
• Housing in SG & Southeast Asia
• Retrofit vs rebuild decisions
• How citizens influence sustainability decisions
• Healthy lifestyle + meaningful work balance
• How not to doom-scroll into apocalypse

🔷 Bring With You

• Sporty/light attire
• Umbrella (this is Singapore)
• Water bottle
• Curiosity
• Your smile

Children welcome.
Strollers manageable.
Community > formality.

🔷 Who Hosts
