People are more connected than ever in their work and personal life, and are demanding that their homes are too. Having the ability to control their home remotely, or from their phone or smart device has become a must for many homeowners.
Whether it be controlling HVAC, security, blinds, lights or integrated audio/visual equipment people need professional installation and this is where the Residential Developers Theatre at Smart Buildings Show will inform and educate.
From large installers on large new build projects to a local installer of smart devices, the Residential Developers Theatre will have the answer.
Bringing together the integrators, resellers and manufacturers in this sector, plus the key associations the Residential Developers Theatre will answer all the key questions and show the benefits of being a player in this fast growing sector.

Inspire the Next ‘Smart’ GenerationIn his Presidential Address in May, Kevin Mitchell, the President of CIBSE said “Inspiring and supporting the next generation of engineers will help society solve the big technical and scientific challenges of today and tomorrow” He went on to say: "Research shows that the most talented young people - those who have a choice of profession - are increasingly drawn to careers where they believe their work will have a positive impact on the world. I would argue that there are few careers that offer more opportunity to deliver real change than that of a Building Services Engineer," "If we can inspire people to join us – people from a range of backgrounds who reflect the communities we serve – if we can do that, our ability to problem solve and innovate will increase exponentially". This session on Inspiring the next generation will cover and explain how everyone of us here at the Smart Buildings Show can be part of launching these careers and ensuring the UK has the required skills in this crucial sector.

Building Automation solutionsBuilding Management Systems (BMS) are integral to the building design and there are countless solutions for building control in the market. Also, many systems control one part of the building such as the lighting or blinds. There are other systems that are specific to a control level such as at supervisory level for plant control. SpeakerPaul Foulkes MSc MIETKNX Business ManagerTheben AG![]() Paul is an intelligent buildings expert. He has been involved in engineering since he was 16, beginning as an apprentice. Starting in the aircraft industry, in maintenance and later R&D and then 20 years living in continental Europe. Working in the construction sector and eventually establishing his own company in France concentrating in all aspects of renewables, intelligent technologies and low energy building techniques. He returned to the UK in to 2012, and completed a Masters in Architecture and the built environment. Since then he has worked in project management and business development. Theben AG |

Lighting, Energy and the EnvironmentEnergy use and our environment are inexorably linked. No matter how hard we try, using innovative efficient new luminaire designs and controls, an installation will always have a carbon footprint. But, how much energy is used in the production of luminaires adding to that carbon footprint? One light can indirectly produce one tonne of CO₂ per annum from its energy use alone, what can we do about it? SpeakerMatt JonesTechnical ManagerThorlux![]() Matt’s career in lighting started 25 years ago when he joined Thorlux as an apprentice. Working his way through the Quality and Technical Services departments and being the Engineering Assistant to the Managing Director to his current position of Technical Manager, Matt has achieved HNC in Mechanical engineering and a degree in Management of Manufacturing System.

Integrating BMS With Audio-Visual Technology In Residential DevelopmentsThe role of the BMS continues to evolve. However, one area that’s frequently overlooked in large residential schemes is how it can be successfully and seamlessly integrated with audio-visual (AV) systems to create a fully functioning smart home that also meets the comfort, convenience and aesthetic demands of the occupants. This talk from CEDIA-award winning company Imperium Building Systems will explain why deeper integration between BMS and AV is so important in this type of project, the barriers to integration and how these barriers can be effectively overcome to the benefit of all parties involved. SpeakerChris ThorneDirectorCEDIA![]() With almost 25 years industry experience across both the BMS Controls and later the Audio Visual industries Chris’s development came from a 15 year career working for Trend Controls, part of the Honeywell Corporation. Initially training as a BMS engineer, he spent a number of years managing and maintaining BMS installations before moving into a business development role helping developers, consultants and integrators design, specify and sell integrated control systems for significant commercial and residential developments.
