FM Expo highlights industry trends and challenges

Issue 8 2023 News & Events, Facilities & Building Management

Keeping tabs on what is happening within the building/facilities management arena can be frustrating for management teams. A quick way for stakeholders to find out what current trends, challenges, and solutions are available can be found at the Facilities Management Expo. Co-located with Securex South Africa, A-OSH EXPO, and Firexpo, Facilities Management Expo 2024 will take place at Gallagher Convention Centre in Midrand, from 28 to 30 May 2024.

“Facilities Management Expo is increasingly being seen as the ultimate platform for providers of technology and services to the facilities management sector. The diverse variety of solutions available at the expo takes the drudge out of finding suitable answers to pressing questions facilities and building managers may have. Furthermore, the interactive nature of the event means that visitors can see the solutions in action before they make a purchasing decision. Networking opportunities with peers in the industry provides further impetus for visitors to attend the expo,” says Mark Anderson, Portfolio Director at Specialised Exhibitions – a division of Montgomery Group.

Another drawcard for facilities/building/risk managers is the Facilities Management Seminar Theatre. The 2023 event hosted 20 seminar sessions, and the Broll Vantage Awards.

“Exhibitors at Facilities Management benefit greatly from the co-location with Securex South Africa, A-OSH EXPO, and Firexpo, as people naturally wander from one section of these expos to another expo. We have also found that people attending the Securex Seminar Theatre, the Saiosh Seminar Theatre, and the Working at Height and Safety Seminar Theatre are attracted to the Facilities Management Expo section, thereby further increasing footfall,” says Anderson.

Organisations wishing to exhibit at Facilities Management Expo 2024 can contact the Facilities Management Expo team at [email protected] or [email protected] to book a space or capitalise on a sponsorship opportunity.
