Accelerating regional growth and economic prosperity through technology and sustainable practice.
19 September 2024 KUALA LUMPUR, – The highly anticipated ENGINEER and MARVEX 2024 is taking place from 18 – 21 September at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre. This flagship event unites key players in the Engineering landscape, including mechanical and electrical (M&E), civil and structural (C&S) sectors, and air-conditioning, mechanical ventilation and refrigeration (ACMV&R) sectors. It provides a vital platform for sourcing, knowledge transfer and collaboration across the ASEAN region.
As the third edition of this premier exhibition, ENGINEER and MARVEX 2024 aims to catalyse growth and innovation with an expected attendance of over 12,000 professionals, including engineers, manufacturers, suppliers and government representatives related to the built environment.
A Hub for Innovation and Collaboration
Hosting 200 leading companies from 10 countries and regions across 4 exhibition halls, this year’s exhibition has been designed to foster an environment where industry stakeholders can share insights, explore new technologies and discuss policies that will shape the future of engineering and ACMV&R sectors.
Key activities include:
Showcase of cutting-edge technologies: in M&E, C&S and ACMV&R solutions, products and materials that address global challenges and improve sustainability in engineering.
Explore Interactive Live Showcases: demonstrating latest technologies in Data Centre Infrastructure and Cleanroom applications. These exhibits will demonstrate the technology and requirements needed to operate and maintain Data Centres and Cleanrooms in Malaysia.
Networking opportunities and Buyer Programme: Engage with thousands of visitors, trade buyers including key decision-makers and industry professionals.
IEM Symposiums and 100+ Hours of Learning: At Malaysia’s Largest Engineering Symposium and Conferences, expand your knowledge and earn over 30 BEM CPD-accredited hours. The much-anticipated IEM Convention will feature over 120 renowned speakers who will share their expertise on trending issues and emerging innovations. The event will tackle real-world challenges across 9 concurrent symposium, seminars and conferences offering over 100 hours of enriching sessions covering topics such as digital transformation, sustainable practices, and the future trajectory of the industry relevant to today’s engineering landscape.
Addressing Industry Challenges and Driving the ESG Agenda
The exhibitions also serve as a platform to address critical challenges facing the engineering sector today. The inaugural Kuala Lumpur Engineering Forum (KLEF) which tackled issues such as the declining interest in engineering among youth and the emigration of qualified engineers aims to inspire the next generation of engineers and ensure a robust talent pipeline for the industry.
Aligned with global sustainability goals, the exhibition also emphasises ESG principles throughout the event, encouraging industry players to adopt green technologies and practices. This makes it essential for anyone looking to stay ahead in a rapidly evolving industry and drive regional growth and economic advancements.
Fostering Regional Prosperity through Innovation and Collaboration
Through strategic partnerships and international collaborations, both exhibitions facilitate business transactions, technology transfers and investment opportunities, making significant contributions to the growth of Malaysia’s economy and the ASEAN region as a whole.
The exhibitions serve as a platform for key industry players to come together and drive the industry forward through shared progress and commitment to sustainable practices aligned with ESG principles. This year, the exhibition will witness the signing of several MoU and MoCs where these strategic alliances aim to further strengthen the country’s engineering and technical fraternity, enhance cooperation and collaboration among stakeholders and work together for the betterment of the industry and nation.
By bringing together NGOs and associations with a shared vision, ENGINEER and MARVEX 2024 is driving the industry towards a carbon-neutral future and promoting the adoption of sustainable practices, fostering regional prosperity and positioning Malaysia a leader in sustainable engineering and ACMV&R technologies.
Connecting the Industry with Professionals
ENGINEER and MARVEX also serve as a critical platform that connects professionals across the engineering and ACMV&R sectors to key industry players who are responsible for sharing vital, industry-specific knowledge. These stakeholders provide insights into current trends and technologies and play a significant role in shaping policies that impact the future of the industry.
This year, the event will be instrumental in bridging communications between engineers and the Board of Engineers Malaysia (BEM), clarifying roles, responsibilities, and regulations governing the profession. Additionally, the platform offers ample opportunities for personal growth and career advancement by fostering a dynamic environment for networking, learning, and professional development.
ENGINEER & MARVEX 2024 is more than just an event; it’s a gateway to unlocking new possibilities in engineering. Be a part of this transformative experience and position yourself at the forefront of innovation and collaboration in the ASEAN region. Register to Visit at: https://bit.ly/EM24vis_PR

About ENGINEER
An event held under the umbrella of IEM Convention, ENGINEER is Malaysia’s first engineering and conference held across 4 days, focusing on the key technical divisions of Mechanical and Electrical, and Civil and Structural engineering.
Jointly organised with IEM (the Institution of Engineers, Malaysia), the national institute for practicing engineers, the exhibition aims to elevate the engineering industry in Malaysia and across the region by gathering engineering professionals and trade visitors to gain insights into cutting-edge solutions and advanced engineering technologies. Taking place simultaneously at ENGINEER is the concurrent exhibition – MARVEX.
About Concurrent Forum: Kuala Lumpur Engineering Forum (KLEF)
IEM Convention will also encompass several thought-provoking forums, symposiums and conferences. C.I.S and IEM has also joined hands to jointly organise the concurrent inaugural KLEF (Kuala Lumpur Engineering Forum). These concurrent events aim to spark innovation, and tackle engineering’s challenges, besides providing opportunities for networking, learning, and shaping the future of engineering.
