The completion of the Centre signifies another landmark project by Lend Lease as the group continues to strengthen its strong track record in Singapore's construction sector. This is the second project that Lend Lease has delivered for INSEAD in Singapore. The previous project involved design and construction of a building extension in 2005. The new Leadership Development Centre has attained Singapore's highest accolade for sustainable buildings, the Building and Construction Authority's Green Mark Platinum Version 4.0 award. Green features at the Centre have been embedded throughout the design and include naturally ventilated lift lobbies, solar panels, energy efficient lighting and building management systems, use of sustainable materials and rainwater harvesting for landscape maintenance. The six-storey Leadership Development Centre, which has state-of-the-art teaching and residential spaces, opened its doors today. Occupying over 10,000 square metres, the Centre will boost INSEAD's presence in the region by meeting demand for management education through a range of management programmes.
