“The industry has seen significant changes in the last little while across the built environment—net-zero, building automation, higher performance”, said George Przybylowski, vice-president of Real Estate/Construction at Informa Exhibitions. “Our show facilitates opportunities to turn these new challenges into new opportunities, whether from expert problem solvers and leaders to innovative new products, for every professional at every stage of their career.”

Over the three days, more than 30,000 industry professionals will visit TBS, according to organizers, discovering and sourcing the latest products, technologies, best practices and new solutions from 1600 Canadian and international exhibits.
