Welcome to London Fit-Out 2017, the second- Special thanks to time we have held this conference at the rather our Sponsors wonderful premises of Fieldfisher overlooking the City of London.

The location provides delegates with a unique vantage point to see the London office market at first hand and, judging by the view from the balcony, the market is in rude health – increased numbers of development planning permissions, tall buildings all around and the London office investment market at record levels, according to the latest figures from CBRE (Q1 2017).

However, for many ‘clients’ the past 12 months has been incredibly traumatic. As unique challenges have swept across the industry and the winds of change have taken hold. The recently announced General Election in June; Brexit and the implications for UK plc and the potential ripples to world stock exchanges, as the USA / Russia continue to stride across the worlds war zones.

How this all works itself down into the fit-out sector is an important question: changing developer expectations; immigration and the availability of construction resource; the growing impact of AI (Artificial intelligence) on the way we work; off-site fabrication and MMC (modern methods of construction) and of course the growth of co-working as a viable solution to the needs of the gig-economy and its effect on the office market, to name but a few.

London Fit-Out has always been resilient and resourceful, however it must now learn more than ever to bend and evolve as the needs of clients – whether they Pop up Showcase be an occupier, developer or end user - and listen to the winds of change moving Exhibitors across our industry.

UK Property Forums asked one of the UK’s fast growing fit-out companies what they see as the major changes in the London fit-out market place over the past few years.

MATT BRAY, Managing Director, Paragon Fit-Out

Q Are developers approaching the fit-out process in a more professional manner?
