Two key events for construction professionals co-located on 16 and 17 May to form one mega-event to cater for the entire industry.
Providing a safe and efficient working and living environment to building users is the ultimate goal of any construction project. Yet often the building design phase of a construction project is disconnected from the facilities management phase.
To bridge this gap, the African Construction Expo has joined forces with the FM Expo this year and the two events will be co-located on 16 and 17 May at the Gallagher Convention Centre in Johannesburg.
Together these expos will bring together over 9,000 built environment experts and deliver an unprecedented mix of learning, networking and deal-making opportunities.
Philip Woods of FM Expo, organised by TE TRADE, explains:
“We are really pleased with the co-location of the events as we believe there is a number of great synergies between the two industries. I hope that through this partnership, there will be a greater understanding and learning between the construction industry and the management of buildings.”
According to Devi Paulsen of dmg events,
“Co-locating the African Construction and Totally Concrete Expo with the FM Expo is yet another way to enhance the attendees’ experience which will ultimately expand their businesses. This is a superb opportunity as it offers our exhibitors a chance to engage with a new group of attendees and presents our visitors with an opportunity to explore new technologies.”
By creating a unified platform, the African Construction and Totally Concrete Expo and the FM Expo promote an open dialogue between construction professionals involved in all stages of the planning, construction and maintenance of buildings. It will not be just the building owners, but also the building users, who will benefit from this new close collaboration.
