Chapman Taylor hosts Georgian trade delegation for architectural tour and collaboration discussions

On Friday 9 May, Chapman Taylor was pleased to host a visiting architectural trade delegation from Georgia, organised by the British Embassy in Tbilisi.

The delegation visited our London studio, where we shared our international design portfolio and discussed our approach to creating sustainable, people-focused developments around the world.

Following the presentation, we led the group on an architectural walking tour of North Greenwich and Canary Wharf, showcasing some of London’s most dynamic urban regeneration projects. The day concluded with a networking dinner at Pergola, Crossrail Place—offering a relaxed setting for further conversation and connection.

The Georgian delegates were in London to explore potential partnerships with UK-based architects and development experts as they prepare to deliver a series of new projects across Georgia.

We thoroughly enjoyed welcoming the group and engaging in thoughtful discussions about design, opportunity, and collaboration. We look forward to continuing the conversation and supporting future development initiatives in Georgia.
