Over the past 80 years, PennWell has established itself as a major organiser of Fire Exhibitions, Conferences and Training programmes from its flagship event, FDIC Indianapolis to smaller more specialised events on the east and west coasts of America.

The Fire Department Instructors Conference (FDIC) brand has established itself as the premier fire industry event for bringing together fire fighters and fire, health and safety industry professionals.

Building on this legacy, PennWell is proud to launch Fire Engineering India (FEI) - an exciting new international conference and exhibition for the fire industry in Delhi in May 2011.

FEI

The three day conference and exhibition will focus on:

• Advancing fire prevention and fixed installation codes and practices
• Applying and assessing building standard compliance
• Disaster mitigation within urban and rural communities
• Protecting India’s critical development infrastructures, e.g. tourism, aviation, rail transportation, marine, industrial and commercial sectors
• Business continuity during crisis situations

No other event offers exhibitors a great platform to display and promote their products and services to the Indian region.
 
No other event offers education for fire officers and health & safety professionals and hands-on training for fire-fighters, in real live situations.

Who Will Attend FEI?

• Government Ministries and Agencies, including Ministry of Interior and Civil Defense departments
  Fire, Health & Safety Officers/Managers and Operations Managers at marine, aviation, petrochemical, oil & gas and construction companies
• Head of Fire & Rescue at Airports and Ports

• Emergency services commanders and chiefs
• Brigade fire chiefs and officers
• Emergency medical personnel
• Crisis and disaster managers

• Head of HR at large construction, oil, gas and petrochemical companies

FEI is the ideal place for the industry to share information, knowledge and solutions and an excellent meeting place for buyers and specifiers to network with suppliers who deliver the solutions to the fire, fire prevention and fire safety industries.

Exhibition

FEI will continue to develop and grow as a more dynamic and attractive event for both visitor and exhibitor. With a range of live demonstrations on the exhibition floor, covering fire, fire prevention and safety, greater interactivity will attract increasing numbers of visitors, while offering more unique sponsorship and promotional opportunities to exhibitors.
