Facilities Show

The world’s most important facilities management event is back, bringing together the entire FM supply chain after three years. It’s the place to share expertise and explore solutions for making the profession more sustainable and drive transformation. Here’s the lowdown on the 2022 programme

The world’s largest dedicated facilities management event welcomes thousands of global FM professionals to experience the latest technological solutions and hear from industry trailblazers—all under one roof, over three days.

With varied exhibitors including Sunbelt Rentals, ICS Cool Energy, Streamline Systems, Aquaflow Services, Your Workspace, Grundon Waste Management, Selecta, BigChange, and many more, the breadth of products on display lets you gain a thorough understanding of the latest technology and innovation available.

The show makes it easy for you to engage one-on-one with these vendors, see their products in action and make the right choices for your facilities management strategy.

ENHANCE YOUR KNOWLEDGE IN THE FM THEATRE

Facilities Show also lets you access thought leadership and insight from industry leaders, with a programme of CPD-accredited educational sessions to help you remain at the forefront of industry knowledge.

This year’s agenda of seminars, presentations, case studies and panel discussions in the dedicated FM theatre will cover the most important topics and developments. Some of the highlights include:

THE ROADMAP TO NET ZERO

A panel will discuss the steps they have taken within their organisations to become sustainable and eventually, net zero, in the future. From harnessing staff collaboration for behaviour change, sustainable travel, waste and resources management and sustainability strategy and reporting. How will your business adapt to new UK and EU legislation with ambitious net-zero targets?

SUSTAINABILITY IN FM AND ACHIEVING ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE

ESG is a hot topic for anyone working within the built environment. Environmental goals, such as achieving net zero remain a priority; but alongside this, the role of facilities management in helping to meet societal aims, from addressing modern slavery to supporting the supply chain, is also vital.

There is also the need to achieve compliance, to ensure that FM is not just meeting its ESG obligations but has the processes in place to meet ESG regulations and reporting mandates.

FMJ will bring together a panel of thought leaders in sustainability to discuss the opportunities for FMs to be front and centre of the integration of ESG into their organisations.

HOW IS FM BECOMING MORE STRATEGIC AND AGILE?

Workplaces need to work harder to work for everyone and need to consider sustainability, wellbeing, diversity, and inclusion. This session looks at the future of FM, and how the pandemic accelerated changes that were already underway.

As a non-profit, Abri Group will share how they choose the levers to ensure impactful outputs that also focuses on value for money.

SMART WORKPLACES

As the hybrid working megatrend gathers pace, top business leaders recognise the importance of delivering a world-class workplace user experience.

This session will explore how smart workplace technology helps you optimise both workplace design and daily facilities operations.

MAKE UP FOR LOST TIME

Huge changes to how we live and work have contributed to a shift in how the workplace is viewed and what people expect from it.

Innovative technology is pushing the boundaries of what real estate can deliver for organisations. The role of FM has grown considerably, and FMs now have a hand in nearly every aspect of a business.

After years apart, it’s time to debrief with your colleagues and peers and strategise for the future. Reconnect, learn and share, in-person and all in one place, through networking opportunities from breakfasts and drink receptions to closed-door roundtable discussions.

As the sun goes down, there’ll also be plenty of drinks and after parties to celebrate the reunion we’ve all been waiting for.
