Bigger, bolder WORLDBEX up in 2019

Following the success of its 23rd edition, the Philippine World Building and Construction Exposition (WORLDBEX) is gearing up to showcase a bigger and bolder installment this year. Intent on championing sustainability and innovation as the benchmark of excellence, this year’s WORLDBEX aims to forge “A World Built Bolder.” The upcoming show aims on bringing its audience the latest and most relevant trends in the global field of construction and design plus a host of exciting new highlights that everyone should watch out for.

Set to occupy over 33,000 sqm exhibition space of World Trade Center Manila and SMX Convention Center combined, this year’s WORLDBEX welcomes an increased number of exhibitors and partners, both old and new. To date, over 600 local and international exhibitors are expected to participate at the show with over 1,500 booths along with various embassies and reputable associations. More countries have also pledged to take part in this year’s International Pavilion with over 15 countries participating such as Czech Republic, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, Germany, Malaysia, Thailand and more.

As WORLDBEX carries on with its mission of gathering the best and brightest product innovations in the market under one venue, attendees can once again expect an impressive display of stateof-the-art technologies in the market at WORLDBEX Lab. Meanwhile, the Architects’ Gallery and Interior Designers’ Gallery shall continue to turn the spotlight on the latest and most groundbreaking trends in design. Also returning is the City of Tomorrow – an exhibit of an ever-evolving scale model metropolis as envisioned by an esteemed group of Filipino architects.

Committed to promote the value of continued learning, WORLDBEX takes pride in being a platform for the freeflowing exchange of relevant industry information through its well-conceptualized and organized line-up of seminars and conventions. Industry professionals and enthusiasts alike are also encouraged to take advantage of this year’s WORLDBEX Seminars and WORLDBEX MiniCon – a one-day seminar hosted by the supporting associations of this year’s WORLDBEX.

To enhance the trade show experience of everyone, WORLDBEX has recently upgraded its app to accommodate new changes. The app now functions as a virtual tour guide by enabling visitors to explore the expo virtually and obtain all the information needed to navigate the expo with ease and comfort.

Conceived to provide young and aspiring professionals an opportunity to showcase their skills and talents in various disciplines, also making a much-anticipated comeback at this year’s WORLDBEX are the Design Excellence of Landscape, Architecture, Exhibit and Exposition (DELAXX) competition and Projéto Manila design competition.
