	The WGRC 2010 is being held at Allen & Overy's London offices in Spitalfields. The building was completed in 2006 and was commissioned by Allen & Overy to meet the needs of a modern, international law firm and with strong environmental objectives in mind. There are three landscaped green roof terraces and a fourth terrace with photovoltaic cells to capture the power of the sun and reduce the energy take of the building. These green spaces provide an area where staff can relax and also help to reduce 'urban heating'.
	The EFB is the European Green Roof Federation consisting of the national green roof associations from Germany, Austria and Switzerland, as well as Italy, Hungary, the Netherlands, the UK and Sweden founded in November 1998 in order to optimize joint promotion, the exchange of know-how among the member countries and the elaboration of a European green roof standard.
