Recent years have seen important evolutions in building ventilation regulations, inspection practices, and market developments across Europe, with significant differences between countries. While Spain has progressively moved towards performance-based IAQ regulations and the adoption of smart ventilation systems, France is transitioning from prescriptive to performance-based frameworks while maintaining its long-standing tradition of mechanical ventilation in dwellings.
The AIVC is pleased to invite you to its upcoming webinar: “Emerging Risks of Indoor Mould: Assessment Methods, In-Situ Measurements & Predictive Modelling”, scheduled for September 18, 2025, from 15:30 to 17:00 CET.
Participation is free of charge, but registration is required.

Climate change is increasingly recognized as a driver of indoor environmental health risks, particularly through the promotion of mould growth, including strains resistant to heat and fungicides. As people spend over 80% of their time indoors, the growing vulnerability of buildings to elevated humidity and moisture poses a significant public health risk. Mould exposure has been linked to respiratory and cardiovascular illnesses, allergic reactions, cognitive decline, and diminished quality of life—outcomes reflected in rising Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs).
The Air Infiltration and Ventilation Centre (AIVC) is pleased to announce its upcoming international workshop, taking place on April 21–22, 2026, in Madrid, Spain, under the theme “Climate Change, Ventilation and Resilience.”
The workshop will provide an opportunity for Spanish researchers and professionals, as well as international experts, to present and discuss recent advances in relation to the challenges that climate change imposes on buildings, related to indoor environmental quality, ventilation, human health and sustainability.
The 46th AIVC conference "Innovations in Smart Ventilation and IEQ for Resilient and Adaptive Buildings" will take place on September 30 & October 1, 2026 at the Songdo International District in Incheon, Republic of Korea. This international event will be held jointly with the 14th TightVent Conference and the 12th venticool Conference.
