🌍✨ Last week marked the 1st FutureFM and IFMA Global Middle East Summit in vibrant Dubai, held as part of the prestigious Big 5 Global Summit! 🚀
I was thrilled to contribute with a keynote on “The New Era of Work: How Facility Management is Shaping a Dynamic Work Environment in Europe & the Middle East”, inspired by my book Disruptive Workplaces (Uitgeverij LannooCampus). 📚🎤
Over two dynamic days, we explored the theme “Harness the Power of FM Innovation” through insightful keynotes and engaging panel discussions. Topics included:
🔹 Technology & AI’s Impact 🤖
🔹 Smart Buildings 🏢
🔹 Sustainability & Circular FM 🌱
🔹 Cybersecurity 🔐
A key highlight? The launch of the IFMA UAE Chapter—led by a motivated and passionate team, sure to be a resounding success! 💡🎉
There was even some time to do a jersey swap from Matt‘s and Tom’s favourite football team (YR KV Mechelen, Liverpool Football Club), presents for their sons. ⚽
This summit was the perfect platform to exchange knowledge and network with FM peers from around the globe. 🌟🤝
