ATTENTION ELECTRICAL CONTRACTORS! TIME TO REGISTER FOR EI LIVE! 2021

The time has come to sign up for this very special edition of EILive! presented in conjunction with lead sponsor OneAV. The show team is looking forward to welcoming the electrical contracting and smart home industry back to the Farnborough Exhibition Centre on 29-30 September 2021 for a much-needed opportunity for networking, in-person interaction and, of course, a chance to get up to speed on everything that is happening across the smart building sector.

Smart homes and smart buildings are on the rise – there are huge opportunities awaiting electrical contractors who can make the right connections and access the right technologies to make this huge growth industry part of their offering. The organisers are very pleased to count HomeLink amongst the shows many sponsors this year. The company will be showcasing its IoT integration platform, allowing landlords and other large-scale builders to fully future-proof their homes – making them more efficient, more connected and attractive to residents. HomeLINK integrates and analyses sensor data to help create a scalable and future-proofed approach to any IoT strategy. Through HomeLINK’s analytics portal, resident app and APIs to existing IT systems, the system provides actionable insights for building owners and tenants. HomeLink is just one of the companies exhibiting that will be able to provide vital insights into how to either get started in this sector or expand your current offering.

EILive! will show home and building automation, entertainment and AV systems who is exhibiting to who is speaking in the Technical Theatre, and you can even book your accommodation from there if planning on staying over.

As we all know, the show was postponed from October 2020 for obvious reasons, and the show team has been working closely with the venue to ensure all current government guidelines are met in order for the show to happen in September. Rest assured, all COVID-19 related procedures and recommendations existing at the time of the event will be fully in place across the show and venue. With events such as the online EI Live! Interactive Week, provided free of charge to the industry, the show organisers have tried to stay in full contact with the industry and keep potential visitors and exhibitors fully informed with updates as soon as they have been received. The organisers are delighted to have maintained the trust of the industry and are keen to underline that it is a genuine team effort between the industry and the show to ensure the event can take place this year. Remember that this is YOUR show and this has never been more true than this year, and the input from the industry has been vital in getting to this point.

Now marking its tenth year, EI Live! will show home and building automation, entertainment and AV systems, and will also be welcoming exhibitors with offerings from related fields too. The heartbeat of any show is the show floor and the organisers are delighted to announce that this year the show is totally sold out – so there will be huge opportunity for installers to catch up with all of their suppliers and, of course, meet some new ones too! The Technical Theatre will be back for 2021, presenting many industry experts providing valuable insight into a whole range of subjects to help expand your business and make operations more successful. Details on this vital area of the show will be revealed very soon, so keep your eyes on the official show website.
