Next Edition
As we readjust to the new normal of coping with
Covid-19 a range of FM thought leaders assess the
ways the sector may be a ected in the medium to
long term by the pandemic. The International WELL
Building Institute (IWBI) has set up a Task Force to
research ways of reducing the enormous health
burden from COVID-19. We hear from them on how
the built environment can redefine its critical role
in prevention and preparedness, resilience and
recovery. Plus; we focus on the achievements of
this year’s CIBSE Building Performance Awards
winners in maintaining both existing and remodelled
buildings; and why 5G will make
connectivity one of the biggest smart buildings
trends this decade.
