FESI - Integrated Sustainable Building Fair

October 14, 2025 - October 15, 2025

FESI Fair: Italy’s Premier Event for Integrated Sustainable Building Technologies

Italy is set to welcome a groundbreaking event dedicated to the future of sustainable construction — the FESI Fair. Organized by Messe Frankfurt Italia and hosted at BolognaFiere, this inaugural fair aims to become the leading platform in Italy for integrated smart building technologies, bringing together industry professionals and innovators in architecture, engineering, and construction.


A Comprehensive Showcase of Smart Building Innovations

The FESI Fair offers a unique opportunity to explore a wide range of technological advancements that contribute to the efficient and sustainable management of modern buildings. Attendees will find a comprehensive overview of key sectors including:

Building Automation Systems that allow seamless control of various functions

Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) technologies designed to optimize energy use

Advanced Lighting Solutions that improve efficiency and occupant comfort

Security Systems integrating the latest in surveillance and access control

Internet of Things (IoT) Applications connecting devices and systems for smarter building operation

Electric Mobility Solutions supporting the integration of sustainable transport infrastructure

These innovations are showcased through both exhibits and in-depth talks, enabling visitors to understand how these diverse technologies can work together harmoniously to shape the buildings of tomorrow.


Responding to New European Energy and Environmental Standards

The creation of FESI reflects the evolving landscape of the European construction sector, driven largely by new directives aiming to drastically reduce emissions and boost energy efficiency by 2030. These regulations impose stricter requirements on buildings, urging developers and managers to adopt sustainable practices throughout construction and renovation projects.

In response to these demands, FESI emphasizes:

Energy-efficient design and retrofitting

Smart management systems to reduce environmental impact

Holistic integration of multiple technologies to create adaptive, high-performance buildings

This event is therefore a timely response to the market’s need for knowledge and solutions that align with Europe’s ambitious climate goals.


Who Should Attend FESI?

FESI caters to a broad spectrum of professionals involved in the lifecycle of buildings, including:

Architects and urban planners seeking sustainable design ideas

Engineers focused on integrating smart technologies

Construction companies involved in green building projects

Facility managers responsible for ongoing building performance

Technology providers developing the next generation of automation and IoT products

By gathering such diverse stakeholders, FESI fosters an ecosystem of collaboration and innovation, encouraging cross-disciplinary approaches to complex sustainability challenges.


The Vision Behind FESI

Developed in partnership with leading industry associations, FESI is not merely a trade fair but a strategic initiative to accelerate the adoption of integrated sustainable building solutions. Its core vision is to create a benchmark event that drives Italy’s building sector toward greater efficiency and environmental responsibility.

The combination of a robust exhibition with expert-led seminars ensures that participants leave equipped with both practical tools and strategic insights. This synergy supports Italy’s transition to smart, low-emission buildings that meet future regulatory demands while improving occupant wellbeing.


Shaping the Future of Sustainable Buildings in Italy

With the launch of FESI, Italy gains a vital forum dedicated to the intersection of technology, sustainability, and construction. This event promises to be an essential meeting point where industry players can discover innovations, forge partnerships, and align their work with Europe’s 2030 energy and environmental objectives.

As buildings become smarter and greener, fairs like FESI will be at the forefront of enabling these changes, showcasing the integrated solutions that make sustainable living possible on a large scale.
