The BIFM Ireland Region Committee is pleased to announce that the 15th annual conference and exhibition will be held on Friday 4th November, 2011.
Following on the success of last year’s conference this important industry event will return to the beautiful and modern setting of Belfast Waterfront. The conference will include a number of illuminating and inspiring talks from FM professionals across the UK and Ireland, presentations will touch on topics ranging from presentation development and delivery to retrofitting older buildings to improving energy efficiency and implementing cost-effective fire safety management. This year we will welcome Eric Hepburn, Chief Operating Officer at Number 10 Downing Street who will provide a unique insight into the day to day facilities management of the Prime Minister’s residence. Our opening address will this year be given by a Senior Representative from the Department of Enterprise Trade & Investment. We are also delighted to welcome Nuala McKeever to the conference. Nuala will be giving a unique and insightful talk, looking at team building and leadership. The conference will also feature an extensive mix of leading FM exhibitors and suppliers to the estates and facilities markets. I look forward to seeing you there.  Danny McAuley Ireland Region Chair
