10 NEWS IN BRIEF Sign-up now for the BICSI UK & Ireland Conference and Exhibition on 14 June 2017 This year’s BICSI UK & Ireland Conference and Exhibition is set to take place at the Barbican Centre in Central London on 14 June. This year’s event will feature a stellar line-up of industry thought leaders who will be delivering impactful seminars on subjects that deeply affect delegates’ day-to-day jobs. The seminar session will open with a BICSI Global address from President Brian Ensign, who will be attending the conference alongside Global Business Development Director Paul Weintraub. The first presentation will feature Nancy De Clerck, Product Manager and CPR co-ordinator at Nexans Cabling Solutions. Nancy will deliver a presentation entitled Construction Products Regulation (CPR) and BS 6701: what you need to know. Other presenters include Christian Schillab of Fluke Networks, Adrian Newsome of Schneider Electric and David Cuthbertson of Square Mile Systems. “The BICSI UK & Ireland District Conference & Exhibition features something for everyone in the field of information and communications technology,” said BICSI President Brian Ensign, RCDD, NTS, OSP, RTPM, CSI. “With five technical presentations touching on topics like construction products regulation, data centre infrastructure and high-density modular cabling, as well as a round table discussion, there is plenty to learn and talk about with fellow delegates. Combine that with exhibitors showing off their latest products and services, and you have the makings of a must- attend BICSI event!” Barry Shambrook BICSI UK & Ireland Chairperson commented: “As chair of the BICSI UK & Ireland District, I am looking forward to welcoming members and other delegates, sponsors and exhibitors to the 5th annual one day BICSI UK& Ireland conference. The conference attendance has increased every year as word gets around of the quality of presentations. We aim to make the day a valuable insight into latest technology and concepts. This year we have five fascinating presentations, followed by an expert panel discussion on cloud services, with an opportunity for the audience to vote on whether this will mean the death of the enterprise data centre. For anyone in the data centre or physical network infrastructure industry who want to catch up on latest trends and are not yet registered to attend, I strongly recommend you do so without delay. Places are limited!” Delegates can register by visiting  www.bicsiconference.co.uk www.networkseuropemagazine.com
