Company: HSBC
Country: U.A.E.
The HSBC tower, which houses the company’s U.A.E. headquarters, was inaugurated in 2019. It is considered to be one of the most sustainable buildings in the world. Built at a cost of $250 million, the building has secured a LEED Gold Standard from the Green Building Council, meaning it uses 25% less energy and 40% less water than a normal building. As well as space for 3,000 employees, the building includes a gym, restaurants and cafés, a reflection room, and an outdoor terrace.
