26 September 2012

Over 70 leading companies from the Building Services industry have already signed up to exhibit at this year’s Building Services – The CIBSE Conference & Exhibition which will take place on 10-11 October at London’s Olympia.

The exhibition is on track to grow a record 30 percent from previous years, with many exhibitors attending for the very first time and numerous companies returning for another year. The electronics giant Samsung, the award winning manufacturers and suppliers of goods lifts and loading bay equipment Transdek and the UK’s leading supplier of high specification luminaires and lighting products, Lamps & Lighting Ltd, are just some of the latest companies to confirm they will be taking a stand in 2012.

The two-day annual event attracts building services professionals from across the globe, providing a superior platform for suppliers to showcase their existing products, launch new technological innovations and network with conference delegates and speakers.

An additional feature at Building Services – The CIBSE Conference & Exhibition is a short session hosted by the CIBSE Certification Team on the CIBSE stand each morning. The sessions will provide an overview of the requirements for organisations wishing to become Green Deal Advice Organisations and an update on how to demonstrate competence to be a Green Deal Advisor.

Fergus Bird, Group Event Manager at UBM Live, said: “We are delighted to be welcoming so many great brands to Building Services – The CIBSE Conference & Exhibition; this year’s event is set to be a record one for us with more exhibitors than ever before. As the leading event for those working within building services it is fantastic that we are able to provide a one-stop shop for the industry, where they can see the latest developments, discuss regulations and policies as well as network with peers.”

To date, a significant number of managers and key decision makers working within the building service sector and representing a wide range of industries have already confirmed they will attend the event. Companies that will be represented include Carillion Construction, Aecom, British Telecom, Ernst & Young, BskyB, London Underground, Turner & Townsend, Balfour Beatty, and Sainsbury’s Supermarkets, amongst many others.

Building Services – The CIBSE Conference & Exhibition will be co-located with Energy Solutions, which this year will host Lord Sebastian Coe KBE as its keynote speaker. Lord Coe will address the audience on the challenges he has faced throughout his career, specifically his role as part of a leadership team managing high-profile projects with huge sustainability targets.

The FM Event and the Global Security Summit London will also run alongside both events, providing a unique opportunity for visitors to interact with a host of suppliers from across all industries.
