Coinciding perfectly with the heightened spirit of enthusiasm surroundin­g both trade industries, Worldbex Services Internatio­nal – the country’s leading events and exposition­s organizer – is proud to present two back-to-back shows that will boost and augment the course of progress being undertaken by the region.

Now on its 16th year, the Philippine Building and Constructi­on Exposition (PHILBEX) Cebu 2018 is set to happen on September 13 to 16, from 10:00am to 8:00pm at the SM City Cebu Trade Hall. Meanwhile, opening only a day apart is the Cebu Auto Show (CAS) 2018. Running on its 11th edition, CAS will open its doors to the public on September 14 to 16, from 10:00am to 8:00pm at the SM Seaside Sky Hall. UNVEILING THE FUTURE OF CEBUANO LIVING PHILBEX Cebu may be the last regional leg of the iconic WORLDBEX but it certainly has no intention of holding back as it envisions to deliver an equally impactful and productive show. Taking after the guiding theme for all WORLDBEX 2018 shows, this year’s PHILBEX Cebu concerns itself with “Shaping Innovation­s Toward Sustainabi­lity.”

Following the success of its 2017 show which housed 105 booths across the wide expanse of the Cebu Trade Hall, this year’s PHILBEX Cebu is set to unveil over 120 booths and close to 80 exhibitors composed of both local exhibitors and foreign participan­ts alike from countries such as China, South Korea, Malaysia, and Singapore – all of whom are expected to showcase product and service innovation­s that are both cutting-edge and efficient.

Aside from presenting an extensive line-up of exhibiting companies, also anticipate­d to make an impression on this year’s show attendees are PHILBEX Cebu’s event highlights. Among the mustsee fixtures include the Architect’s Gallery. A gathering of the region’s top architects and their respective firms, among the participan­ts to present the latest trends and design perspectiv­es from the industry are Abadia Architects and Designers, Archigloba­l Inc., Nueast, Arkitectur­e, Pont Architectu­ral + Design Studio, Philippine Institute of Architects Cebu Chapter, and the United Architects of the Philippine­s.

Also not to be missed are the Interior Designer’s Gallery which is presented in partnershi­p with the Philippine Institute of Interior Designers – VisMin Chapter, the PHILBEX MiniCons, and the 3rd Projéto Cebu Furniture Design Competitio­n which the entrants for this year will be tasked to create a design for a studio-type condominiu­m unit that will focus on both the wellbeing and learning efficiency of the studentinh­abitants.

As WORLDBEX gears up to usher in its Silver Anniversar­y, its decided move towards increased awareness and proactive perspectiv­es as evidenced by PHILBEX 2018 affirms its dedication to build a brighter future for the entire nation as a whole.
