Healthcare Estates 2019

Healthcare Estates 2019 is just a few short weeks away (8-9 October), with preparations for the biggest event yet; more exhibitors, more speakers, more exhibition theatres, a fabulous new venue for the Dinner and Awards, and a very special plenary theatre.

The event hosts the International Federation of Hospital Engineering, and delegates from around the world will be visiting Manchester to attend the event, as well as experience Manchester’s famous northern hospitality.

The two-day conference programme and exhibition theatres have something of interest for everyone: Estates and Facilities Director, an apprentice, or any professional level in between. The learning opportunities are many and varied and this year, we feature experts from all over the world who are speaking at the conference.

Healthcare Estates is a truly unique event bringing together those who design, build manage and maintain healthcare facilities. The exhibition offers visitors the opportunity to come and browse new products, new ideas, innovative solutions and talk with experts from over 250 organisations working across the healthcare sector offering a packed hall full of interesting ideas and technical expertise.

The conference has four streams – Strategy and Leadership, Engineering and Facilities Management, Planning Design and Construction, and Innovation.

Keynote speakers include: Simon Corben, Director and Head of Profession NHS Estates and Facilities, NHS Improvement, Alasdair Coates, Chief Executive Officer, Engineering Council, Darryl Pitcher, President of the IFHE, and Professor Michail Kagioglou, Dean of the University of Huddersfield, Alan Sharp, Chief Executive Officer, Mater Hospital Dublin, and the motivational speaker is Sally Becker, the “Angel of Mostar”.

In addition, there is a workshop from NHSI, and an international case study session – all free to attend, including seven exhibition theatres to choose from.
