Following the current global scourge of the coronavirus pandemic which has made physical distancing inevitable, and calls for new strategies and innovations that will meet the expectations and needs of our numerous clients, the organizers of Africa’s largest housing and construction event- Abuja International Housing Show have emerged with the virtual edition of the show.
Though in their 14th year, this year’s show will be the first virtual edition and will be an opportunity to get familiar with a future that is inevitable. With the advancement of technology, it will become a norm, and not a rarity to witness more shows like AIHS go fully digital, while maintaining its values, relevance, impact and stakeholders.
OVERVIEW OF DIGITAL AIHS 2020
Abuja International Housing Show has emerged the largest housing and construction event showcase out of Nigeria to serve the world in 14 years, with proven record of excellence in meeting the teeming needs of the built industry and the market it serves in a most dynamic way.
Digital AIHS 2020 is scheduled to be a 4-day event which will hold from 21st – 24th of July 2020, 9am to 6pm daily, Nigerian time. The event is designed to be accessible to all participants globally via internet connected devices such as computers, laptops, tablets or mobile phones. This event will also be available on demand for a further 30 days after the first 5 live days. All our partners in not less than 15 Countries will also be among participants and exhibitors.
The International Housing Show/Exhibition features Products Presentation, Exhibition of Building Technology for affordable housing from different parts of the world, home interiors, modern construction equipment, chemical and paints products, mortgage services, housing projects, interactive forums with high net-worth participants, culminating in Nigeria Housing Awards 2020.
The event is powered by International Housing and Construction Show Limited in Collaboration with Fesadeb Communications Ltd – The leading promoter of housing development in Nigeria, with the annual support of all the leading brands in the Housing and Construction Industry in Africa
The platform has evolved into a juggernaut of multidimensional experiences for professionals and product and service providers across the built industry value chain through its 5-day stakeholder conferences, forum and exhibition while serving as Nigeria’s biggest advocacy vehicle positioned to advance policy and drive change within the sector through discussions and interactions of decision makers and game changers.
Abuja International Housing Show is a collaborative platform drawing leaders, stakeholders and CEOs at the highest echelons of the global housing and infrastructure sector, boosting public and private discourse for the transformation of the face of the Nigerian and African markets to world class status. With an underlying goal to be a unifying platform for local and international stakeholders to interact and devise effective strategies for housing and construction industry development.
The Show has become a must attend event for professionals and building materials manufacturers, scholars, housing finance experts, home seekers, commercial Banks, government functionaries and students from all over the world. The last edition of the show witnessed industry participation from 15 countries, 30 states in Nigeria, 400 exhibitors with over 40,000 participants.
Digital AIHS 2020 will feature exhibitions held in a custom virtual environment where exhibitors will be allotted custom-built virtual booths. Attendees will also be able to engage in meaningful conversations with exhibitors using text, audio and video chat, in a 1:1 or group setting.
The event will equally feature a selection of webinars delivered by leading industry experts some of whom will field questions from the audience via Q&A sessions. The theme for this year’s event is “Housing Finance Innovations for 2020 and Beyond: Sustainable Systems for Cities” and sessions will cover a wide range of topics spanning the entire property value chain from land acquisition to building quality.
We are targeting an attendance of at least 100 exhibitors and 5,000+ attendees.
