Visitor registration opens today for and FIREX International Connect 2021 and FIREX International in-person. FIREX International Connect 2021 is a brand new digital event running throughout the month of June. The upcoming FIREX  International in-person will take place at ExCeL London from 12-14 July, providing the first opportunity in over two years for the fire safety industry to unite face to face.

“Both events present unmissable opportunities for the industry to reconnect and explore the innovative approaches to fire safety that have been born out of a challenging year,” said Chris Edwards, Group Director at Informa Markets. “Attendees will get to grips with the newest fire safety solutions, product launches and the impacts of the latest guidance and legislation.”

 

FIREX  International in-person: 12-14 July, ExCeL London

FIREX  International will provide the first major opportunity in over two years for the fire safety community to meet face to face in a safe and secure way, source the latest fire safety solutions and meet with experts and peers to discuss the impacts of the new Building Safety Bill and ongoing Grenfell Inquiry on existing legislation.

The event will run in line with the industry recognised and Government approved Informa AllSecure standard designed to ensure the safety of all attendees. Informa AllSecure was piloted in September 2020 and approved by the UK Government on 19 November 2020 as a model for running large events safely. It involves several health and safety measures, including deep cleaning, social distancing onsite, staggered arrival times and PPE, including face masks.

The month-long online event running from 1-30 June will give visitors the opportunity to connect with new and international audiences through video calls and messaging, browse fire safety solutions and products, connect with suppliers and access thought-leadership content from any location.

Visitors can plan meetings using the tailored 1.2.1 meeting service or the Connect 2021 AI augmented platform, which will make intelligent recommendations based on their online profile. A series of tech-based presentations and thought leadership panel discussions focusing on the industry’s hottest topics, including building safety and tall building evacuations, are scheduled throughout June.

 

Over 32,000 visitors from 120+ countries are expected to attend both events to connect with and view thousands of innovative products brand new to market from more than 600 of the biggest names in the industry, including AICO, Coopers, Quelfire, Envirograf, Vimpex, Independent Fire Inspections, alongside key fire safety associations FIA, ASFP, FPA and many more.
