The industry event set to light up winter — miss it and miss out!

However, land development and new home construction are substantial, complex undertakings. Every step, from design and planning to construction and approvals, is essential, and even a small oversight can lead to financial losses. With building materials and labour also in short supply following the pandemic, individuals and developers alike face unprecedented challenges.

 

The New Zealand International Building Expo and Summit (NZIBES), to be held at Vodafone Events Centre (Vodafone Events Centre) on 6–7 August, will support the construction industry across the board, address developers' pain points, improve development efficiency and quality, and help everyone undertaking development navigate the process.

This year's expo is organised by the New Zealand Chinese Building Industry Association (NZCBIA), with 3A Events and MultiMarketing as co-organisers. Expected to attract ten thousand visitors, this major event can be considered the construction industry's “Two Sessions-style barometer”。 

This unmissable industry event promises plenty of highlights! Here is a preview of five key attractions.

01

Explore the expo! More than a hundred leading companies exhibit,

showcasing their latest products

 

The expo has attracted more than a hundred high-quality companies and brands across numerous fields, including architectural design, building materials, smart homes, technology products, finance and insurance, and property management. It will offer a high-quality exhibition experience for industry professionals across all channels, professional buyers and specialists from other sectors. 

To promote innovation and future development in the industry, the expo has chosen the theme “Shaping future living together — building together, living together”, calling on industry colleagues to work together towards a future of innovation in construction. One of this year's biggest highlights is the themed exhibition area,  the “Innovation Zone”, where exhibitors will showcase a range of much-anticipated new products. These include the low-carbon, environmentally friendly building materials, smart home products, software and smart tools currently championed by the industry. There is plenty to look forward to!

 

02

Build your knowledge! Attend free industry talks,

with insights from industry leaders

New Zealand's construction industry has recently experienced unprecedented prosperity. However, last year's global pandemic sent international shipping costs soaring and intensified raw material shortages, making 2021 a year of both “risks” and “opportunities” for construction. 

NZCBIA Vice-President Keven Chen said this year's expo aims to bring together the industry's strengths and businesses' voices to explore new directions for construction amid these “risks” and “opportunities”. With raw materials in extremely short supply, can we inject fresh “blood” into traditional construction and find new solutions? This will be a central focus of the expo. 

“We have invited industry experts and representatives of leading companies to come together for industry seminars. During the expo, more than ten industry talks will be open to the public free of charge, offering the latest market information and industry trends. Everyone is welcome to join us to discuss emerging industry trends and work together on solutions.” said NZCBIA President Frank Xu.

“The two-day expo and Saturday's B2B lunch will also provide participating companies and individuals with excellent opportunities to connect with the industry and share information. They are not to be missed!”

03

On-site industry expert “consultations”

to answer your development questions free of charge

NZCBIA President Frank Xu, Vice-President Keven Chen, Secretary-General Dylan Huang and several industry professionals will attend the expo, offering visitors face-to-face “consultations”. 

NZCBIA Secretary-General Dylan Huang said,  

“Over the past two years, the property industry has enjoyed unprecedented prosperity. We could say we have entered an era in which everyone is subdividing and developing. But development is itself a substantial, complex undertaking. Every step, from design and planning to approvals and construction, is essential, and even a small oversight can lead to financial losses. So the association is taking this opportunity to help visitors resolve the various “tricky problems” they encounter in their developments, helping them bring their projects to a successful completion.”
