The demand for facilities management is expected to increase spectacularly over the next few years, according to a leading industry analyst.

He goes on to say that most of the demand for facilities management services is expected from the new buildings that would border the skylines of the big cities in the Gulf region. Existing buildings that are aging and require maintenance and expert care are expected to contribute significantly to the growth of this market as well.

Over the past 15 years, the Facilities And Asset Management Conference has established itself as the leading platform for information and networking focused on Facilities Management in the Middle East.

In the past, the Facilities Management sector grew exponentially and in the mid-2000's was the fastest growing profession in the world. Following the collapse of the world's financial markets and subsequent decline in property development, savvy property owners, building managers, occupiers and tenants know that their facilities need to be high-quality, high-performing and now more than ever; cost and energy efficient. Despite the economic slowdown and with new legislation on the horizon, attendance at this year's FAAM Conference has never been more critical.
