Experience, in-depth understanding & exceptional support

As specialists in forums in the built environment we facilitated nearly 5,000 business meetings in 2017. Backed up by our in-depth experience in publishing with the leading design & build publications in Education, Higher Education, Healthcare, Mental Health & dementia, leisure, & physical activities.

We have a unique understanding of the needs of those involved in the built environment putting us in an enviable position when it comes to developing the themes for our seminar programmes ensuring that they are relevant, topical and address current challenges. The overall upward positive trend in housing construction continues in 2017.

The shortfall of homes in the UK, and the calls to Government to make more funding available for social housing along with the skills shortage and threat of rising costs of materials means it is a sector that presents both challenge and opportunity. An analysis of the National Infrastructure & Construction Projects by the IPA states that the government expects to more than double, in real terms, its annual capital spending on housing over the course of this Parliament. New funding including a £2.3 billion Housing Infrastructure Fund funded by the NPIF will deliver infrastructure to support the delivery of up to 100,000 homes and an additional £1.4 billion funded by the NPIF investment in affordable housing to deliver 40,000 new affordable homes. With planning consents on new build homes rising to almost 322,000 in June, it’s a sector ripe for growth.
