Jaafar Shubber, Senior Project Manager, FM EXPO, said: "For the last 10 years, FM EXPO has successfully promoted the needs of FM professionals, tenants and end users, as well as property developers and owners, by focusing on wide range of topics such as sustainability, technology, building compliance, building lifecycle, security, and hygiene and infrastructure, among others. Strict government regulations on built environment and demand for cost and energy efficient solutions has spurred the need for advanced FM solutions which will feature under the spotlight at the bigger 10th edition of the FM EXPO."
