Welcome to Gleeds.tv
Gleeds – International Management and Construction Consultants by day – moonlighting as the construction industry’s You Tube? Not quite.
It all started in 2007 when we had the opportunity to film a series of the RIBA International Dialogues: Architecture and Climate Change lectures and we wanted to share them with staff, clients and wider industry (because that’s the kind of people we are).
Working in partnership with industry bodies such as the RIBA and the BCSE; filming industry initiatives like the ‘Virgin Red Hot Design Talks’ and the myplace programme, Gleeds has delivered over 450 videos ranging from project profiles, to interviews, to construction and property news.
So what does the future hold for Gleeds TV? This year we are looking to further expand our content – with a new series of RIBA International Dialogues talks beginning soon and the upcoming London Festival of Architecture, it is building up to be another exciting year.
As always we are open to contributions or suggestions. Although it has the Gleeds name, it is not all about us! So get involved, follow us on Facebook, Twitter and the Gleeds TV Blog and email us your ideas at gleeds.tv@gleeds.co.uk

What is the essence of education? Stephen Bayley discusses how Very little formalised thinking about school design and building to a cost rather than a principle have led to schools that do not focus on the essence of education.
