As the number and influence of facility management professionals continue to grow throughout Europe, the EU FM Coalition is poised to become the preeminent public advocacy body for facility management within the Union.

The FM Event, run in association with British Institute of Facilities Management (BIFM), is directed at facilities, estate, and property managers.

The Global Facility Management Association (Global FM) kicked off its series of International Workshops in 2012 with two successful workshops held in Dubai, U.A.E. and in Paris, France. Both examined the topic of facilities management outsourcing from two very different perspectives.

Many questions were tackled at the 11th Global FM International Workshop held alongside the Th!nk FM conference earlier this month in Nottingham, UK.

Workplace Week is run by leading workplace consultants Advanced Workplace Associates (AWA). During the week, companies will open their doors and host visits to their offices during working hours; visits will earn money for charity.

The goal of the MoU is to help both organizations to provide enhanced services to their members and raise the profile of facilities management through cooperation and collaboration.

Winners are announced at the BIFM Awards, the biggest networking event in the UK. The closing date for entries is Friday, April 30, 2010.

Brazil's facility management association celebrates five years and Global FM pioneer is honored in the UK.

The BIFM Awards recognizes more than just the work that facility managers (fms) do; they identify the evolution of FM as an industry.

The newly updated Facilities Management Handbook will be essential reading for professionals responsible for facilities, services provision, and health and safety in the workplace.

The Facilities Show, in association with BIFM, will take place from May 12-14 at the Birmingham NEC.

In this Web exclusive, Richard Byatt, Communications & External Affairs Director for the British Institute of Facilities Management, writes, "This 5th November, the U.K. woke to the news that Barack Obama had won an unprecedented victory in the U.S. presidential election. In a small way, the FM community here celebrated its own history yesterday."
