    Ms Lucia Wong, Deputy General Manager of Messe Frankfurt (Shanghai) Co Ltd, commented: “Shanghai Intelligent Building Technology has established itself as the most comprehensive annual platform on intelligent building technologies for the China market and will celebrate its ninth edition in 2015. Being a technology driven event, the fair is constantly evolving to cope with rapidly changing market trends. Today, intelligent building markets are looking for total solutions with value-added properties and greater efficiency. Fortunately, new building technologies and product functions are arising from the collaborative crossover of disciplines such as building automation, fire safety and security. Moreover, the integration of the IT and intelligent building industries is significantly enhanced by the pervasive nature of the Internet of Things. Cloud computing and big data are altering the behaviours of building analytics vendors. Recognising this, the show will exhibit diversified intelligent building solutions including but not limited to generic cabling and data centres, energy management and building automation, and building energy saving.”
