The BCIA – Saving The Best Until Last At Smart Buildings Show

A BCIA presentation at Smart Buildings Show The BCIA are presenting two enlightening conference sessions at this year’s must‑attend Smart Buildings Show at London’s ExCeL.

Andy Camsell, BCIA Technical Consultant Trainer, will deliver a CPD‑accredited talk as part of the BCIA’s Young Engineers annual programme on Wednesday 18th October at 3.15pm. Meanwhile, BCIA President Graeme Rees will bring the show to a close by chairing a panel discussion on the debate of whether current policy landscape enables or hinders the building controls industry. This takes place on Thursday 19th October at 3.10pm with both sessions held in the Controls & Networks Theatre.

Understanding Smart Communications Using BACnet

Offering a bitesize masterclass, Andy Camsell will provide attendees with an insight into what BACnet is and why you should choose BACnet and its network architecture. This talk will be aimed at those under the age of 35 working in BEMS and building controls and will offer an opportunity for both learning and networking.



Building Controls – Powering A Zero‑Carbon Built Environment

For Smart Buildings Show’s final panel discussion, Graeme Rees will be joined by:-

  • Fay Holland, Senior Policy Advisor at Energy Systems Catapult
  • Signe Norberg, Head of Public Affairs and Communications for Aldersgate Group
  • Ilias Vazaois, Director of Low Carbon at Germserv
  • Dan Hopkins, Technical Manager at ebm‑papst UK Ltd (a BCIA member company)

Debating whether the current commercial building energy efficiency models are fit for purpose, the panel will question whether decarbonisation and energy consumption benefits are enough to change the minds of developers and landlords.

BCIA will be on stand A21 to discuss any membership/training queries you may have.

We look forward to seeing many of our members there!
