RIAS Live is a one-day conference, bringing together architects and industry professionals from across Scotland and beyond for a dynamic programme of discussion, networking, and learning. This year held in Glasgow, Renewal by Design will explore how an open, thriving architectural profession is key to building a fairer Scotland that works for all. As commercial realities take hold, how can the industry evolve to be more representative and inclusive to the people it serves?

The Architectural Heritage Society of Scotland (AHSS), in partnership with the Edinburgh School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture (University of Edinburgh), is organising a symposium to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the death of the great Scots Baronial architect, David Bryce (1803-1876). The symposium will be held in one of Bryce’s own buildings, the former Edinburgh Royal Infirmary, recently conserved and repurposed as the Edinburgh Futures Institute.  It will showcase the latest research on Bryce’s life and work, celebrating him as a key figure in the history of Scottish architecture.

Join the Scottish Council on Archives for this year's conference exploring how archives and records underpin democracy, accountability, creativity, wellbeing & community. Inspired by the theme of The National Archives’ new vision document, launched earlier this year, the conference will highlight the impact of archives and records across every aspect of society. This year there will be voices from across the sector to share how archives and recordkeeping contribute to a more transparent, vibrant and healthier society. Whether you work in archives, records management, conservation, community archives, research, education, or policy — this conference is for you. The call for papers is currently open. Full programme to be published w/c 28 September. Tickets are £45 inclusive of booking fee.
