The trade show will feature the next engineering revolution in the ASEAN region and showcase ESG initiatives to push the region towards the global Zero Carbon Target by 2050
KUALA KUMPUR, 21 August, 2023 – The much-anticipated Malaysian Engineering Exhibition and Conference 2023 (ENGINEER), a key event of the IEM Convention and its concurrent exhibition, the Air-Conditioning, Refrigeration & Ventilation Expo 2023 (MARVEX) is set to kick off in grand style, uniting a diverse assembly of local and regional industry leaders from across the ASEAN region.
Under the theme “The Business Gateway to ASEAN Engineering and ACMV & R,” the second edition of ENGINEER and MARVEX, will span four days, from 6 to 9 September at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre. Jointly organised by The Institution of Engineers Malaysia (IEM), the Malaysian Air-conditioning and Refrigeration Association (MACRA) and C.I.S, the event integrates the region’s foremost players in the three fundamental pillars of engineering highlighted at the expo – M&E, C&S, and ACMV&R – representing the largest sub-sectors and disciplines in engineering.
This event, with the potential to reshape the industry landscape, will spotlight the latest engineering advancements, innovative technologies, and environmental initiatives. Featuring over 200 brands representing more than 10 countries and regions, the participation is both extensive and diverse. The event’s programme will include Malaysia’s Largest Engineering Symposium and Conference, incorporating 6 symposiums under the IEM Convention and 2 concurrent conferences by ASHRAE Malaysia Chapter and Carrier. These sessions will embrace a broad array of topics, ranging from Digital Transformation and Advances in Structural Design to discussions on Smart Cities Engineering and beyond.
This second instalment comes after its successful launch last year, witnessing the participation of nearly 1,500 buyers and a total visitorship exceeding 5,200. Engineers comprised 53% and industry traders made up 32% of the attendees. Impressively, 87% of the attendees noted that the expo met their sourcing needs for the first time. The event brought together industry players, facilitating the exchange of ideas, knowledge-sharing and provided attendees with the opportunity to personally experience the growth of innovation in the industry.
This year, the expo is ready to once again welcome visitors and exhibitors to witness inspiration, ideas, and innovation. The event anticipates the participation of 10,000 engineering and allied professionals from the M&E, C&S and ACMV&R sectors, government delegations, industry players, trade associations, business chambers, as well as local and international buyers.
Much emphasis will revolve around embracing digitalisation and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) inspired technology. The global business landscape is undergoing a significant transformation, with technology and sustainability acting as key catalysts. ENGINEER and MARVEX aim to be at the forefront of this transformation, serving as a platform for thought leaders to discuss and demonstrate how businesses can effectively adapt to these changes.
A key focus this year will also be the ESG initiatives, putting the spotlight on energy efficiency and climate change issues through a dedicated ESG Zone. This area is curated to create awareness around sustainability practices from the ESG initiative partners of the exhibition: Private Sector, Institution (IEM) and the Government.
Attendees will have the opportunity to gain insights from over 100 hours of presentations delivered by more than 120 esteemed local and international speakers across more than 40 talk sessions. Furthermore, participants can accrue over 30 BEM CPD (Board of Engineers Malaysia Continuing Professional Development) hours through the symposiums, conferences, and a variety of talk sessions designed to facilitate knowledge-sharing and industry awareness.
Beyond bringing the fraternity together, this event charts a course forward, uniting the industry to collectively make a positive impact on the quality of life for future generations. Designed to set the industry’s pace and growth trajectory through discussions and presentations by topic experts and market leaders, the Power Talk Series returns to foster knowledge-sharing and experiential learning, featuring four key series: ESG, Industry, Business, and Education. These concise talks offer an effective and memorable learning tool for attendees to discover life-changing innovations and experience a deeply interconnected high-tech world.
Additionally, ENGINEER and MARVEX have garnered the support and endorsement of more than 30 establishments including ministries, regulatory bodies and industry associations from both local and international spheres, ensuring a comprehensive and enlightening experience for all participants.
