KUALA LUMPUR: ARCHIDEX, Asia’s leading architecture business event, will reconvene at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre from July 3-6.

Organised in conjunction with the Kuala Lumpur Architecture Festival (“KLAF”), ARCHIDEX will bring together top industry professionals and leading brands to shape a sustainable future in architecture, as the industry aligns with the Malaysian government’s forward-thinking aspirations in the construction and built environment sector.

ARCHIDEX is set to be the largest and most influential edition yet, expecting to welcome close to 700 exhibitors and an anticipated 40,000 visitors from 100 countries.

As an integral part of the annual KLAF, jointly organised with Pertubuhan Akitek Malaysia (“PAM” or “Malaysian Institute of Architects”), ARCHIDEX will play a critical role as a hub for trade and sourcing new technology in the region, advancing technology and automation adoption in the global Industrial Revolution 4.0.

ARCHIDEX arrives at a critical juncture as the Malaysian government activates its plan to modernise the industry and nudge the eco-system to leverage next-gen technology towards creating sustainable infrastructure and the built environment. It will bring together top industry professionals to explore the dynamic intersection of design technology and environmental stewardship.

The focus will be on pioneering methods to create eco-friendly structures that not only minimise environmental impact but also foster vibrant connections within communities.

This year, ARCHIDEX will power the transformative potential of trailblazing technologies that can drive industry growth and create infrastructure and built environment that is environmentally sustainable and community-driven.

ASEAN-China Ministerial Roundtable on Construction and Housing (“ACMROCH”) 2024 ARCHIDEX convenes alongside the prestigious ASEAN-China Ministerial Roundtable on Construction and Housing (“ACMROCH”) 2024 event hosted by the Ministry of Housing and Local Government (“KPKT”) of Malaysia.

Coinciding with the commemoration of 50 years of diplomatic relations between Malaysia and China, the roundtable provides a valuable forum for ministers from ASEAN countries and China to discuss key issues and explore opportunities to leverage the Belt and Road Initiative (“BRI”) for promoting regional progress in housing and construction.

ARCHIDEX also captures the confident optimism the nation possesses, driving creative solutions and regional cooperation as the government embarks on an initiative to modernise the infrastructure and built environment.

These initiatives emphasise innovative and nature-inspired materials, digital technologies, construction processes and design strategies that prioritise net-zero energy buildings and carbon-neutral developments.-pr/BNN
