Scaling Up: Technology, Talent, and Transformation in Facilities Management for Developing Markets


Facilities management across Africa is experiencing significant change. New technologies, evolving workforce expectations, sustainability priorities, and increasing demands on buildings and infrastructure are reshaping how FM is delivered in both the public and private sectors.

The conference theme focuses on how technology, people, and organizational practices are enabling this transformation, and how successful ideas and initiatives can be strengthened, sustained, and expanded over time.

While many FM teams are already innovating locally, the conference will explore how these efforts can move beyond individual projects or sites to deliver broader and more consistent impact across portfolios, organizations, and regions, without losing sight of local context and practical realities.
