The National Facilities Management and Technology Conference and Expo (NFMT) has been named one of the 50 fastest growing trade shows by Trade Show Executive magazine. NFMT ranked in the top 50 by growth in net square feet of exhibit space and growth in number of exhibiting companies. Winners were selected based on the highest percentage of growth in each of their respective categories.
 
“We are honored to be included in Trade Show Executive's Fastest 50 - Class of 2012,” said Bob Wisniewski, president and owner of Trade Press Media Group, which co-owns the event with ROC Exhibitions in Lisle Ill. “I’m extremely proud of our show management team and grateful for the support of our loyal attendees, speakers and exhibitors. NFMT is next week and this exciting announcement gives our team an extra boost as we’re in the throes of making final arrangements for this year while planning for the 2014 show.”
 
NFMT is a trade show, educational conference and networking event for facilities management professionals. The event draws thousands of building owners, directors of facilities and maintenance and engineering mangers who are responsible for commercial, educational, government, medical, retail, industrial/manufacturing, hospitality and utility facilities and properties.

FMT 2013 is scheduled for March 12-14 at the Baltimore Convention Center. An attendance of more than 5,000 professionals and 500 exhibitors are expected to comprise the show.
 

According to the Trade Show Executive, “An elite group of shows vaulted over some 4,000 other trade shows in the U.S. by growing at least seven times the average growth rate of 2012. The 50 top performers in each of three metrics — net square feet, number of exhibiting companies and attendance — have now been identified and will be honored for their elite status at the Trade Show Executive Fastest 50 Awards & Summit, May 8-10, 2013 at the Swissôtel Chicago.”
