A fresh approach for UK Building and Construction exhibitions

Other than Ecobuild, the UK building and construction exhibition industry has been on its knees since the demise of Interbuild and its failure to find its place and keep pace with the changing construction sector. 

Even the fantastic Ecobuild show has appeared a little flat in the last couple of years. However, is a saviour on its way, with a new comprehensive trade show, covering many relevant aspects and sectors of the whole building and construction industry? 

The newly launched UK Construction Week (6-11 October 2015), spans five halls of the NEC and will include nine shows specific to the UK construction industry. Organised by Media 10, The UK’s biggest design and build event company, UK Construction Week promises to be the strongest trade event the building and construction industry has ever seen. It is encouraging to see a trade show at the right time of the year, with carefully selected and specialised segmented areas. 

The building and construction industry has seen huge growth in the last two years and is one of the most exciting and rewarding industries to be a part of and UK construction week will demonstrate why. Pinnacle Consulting wish Media 10 and all exhibitors the very best for a fantastic week.
