Shanghai Intelligent Building Technology (SIBT) kicks off its 11th edition from 5 – 7 September 2017 at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre in Shanghai. With the support from Intelligent Engineering Branch of China Exploration and Design Association, the fair will once again run concurrently with Shanghai Smart Home Technology (SSHT). The two fairs are expected to welcome 240 exhibitors to present Building Internet of Things (BIoT) and smart home technologies. As a leading trading platform in the intelligent building industry, SIBT is a comprehensive showcase of innovations covering control interfaces and systems, total solutions, chips, modules, sensor products, Internet of Things (IoT) technologies and NarrowBand-Internet of Things (NB-IoT) technologies.
Ms Lucia Wong, Deputy General Manager of Messe Frankfurt (Shanghai) Co Ltd, expressed: “Approaching its 11th edition, SIBT will strive to continue its success for another year. I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to the whole industry for its support over the years. Rapid urban development, economic growth, application of cloud computing and IoT are paving the way for intelligentisation in the building industry. IoT technologies will become the foundation of intelligent buildings and BIoT will gradually develop into an influential industry trend. Buildings not only provide safety and shelter to citizens but they also act as the basic component of urban planning, while also reflecting contemporary lifestyles and promoting mental well-being. SIBT will examine the convergence of building technologies and the concepts of BIoT. This development will fulfill the demand for users’ comfort and convenience and ultimately lead to enriching experiences.”
This year’s fair focuses on the idea of BIoT which provides momentum within the intelligent building industry. The concept of intelligent building has been evolving from an individual building to a cluster of buildings, moving towards intelligent technologies and digitisation. In return, the rapid development of intelligent building technologies has also enriched the original concepts and functionality of IoT technologies. The ideas of cognitive building will eventually be realised to demonstrate improvements in energy-saving, safety, convenience and efficiency.
