FHI Building Automation and the Real Estate Managers & Experts Foundation (VGME) are partnering to connect their knowledge and networks. FHI and VGME believe in the interaction between clients and technological partners.

The collaboration brings two worlds together. VGME focuses on managing and optimizing real estate, while FHI Building Automation focuses on technologies that make buildings more sustainable, efficient, and future-proof. Together, the organizations strive to exchange knowledge and expertise, thus adding value for their members and the sector as a whole.

The collaboration will kick off with the joint masterclass "Innovative and Efficient Real Estate Management" on October 8th in Leusden. The partnership will also offer members the opportunity to attend each other's meetings.

Mireille de Korte, chair of VGME: “Building automation is playing an increasingly important role in strategic themes like sustainability and user experience. In collaboration with FHI, we're bridging the gap between technological innovations and practical needs.”

Richard Daamen, chairman of FHI Building Automation: "By sharing knowledge and expertise on legislation and regulations, and by gaining insight into the needs and experiences of both associations, we can strengthen each other. VGME's support base aligns seamlessly with that of FHI. Together, we can significantly accelerate the digitalization process within Building Automation."
