EASYFAIRS FACILITIES MANAGEMENT
TO THE NEC The first ever easyFairs Facilities Management, the only event for facilities, property and estate managers outside of London has quickly gained momentum and will have an array of show features, a major education programme and a hall packed with exhibitors when it opens its doors at the NEC, 11-13 March.
