The ribbon-cutting ceremony of Maintcon last year.

The Gulf Society for Maintenance & Reliability (GSMR) and the Bahrain Society of Engineers (BSE) are set to hold the seventh International Maintenance, Reliability, and Asset Management Conference (Maintcon) from October 13 to 16 in Bahrain.

The event will be held at the Exhibition World Bahrain, under the patronage of Oil and Environment Minister and Special Envoy for Climate Affairs Dr Mohamed bin Mubarak Bin Daina.

Maintcon (www.maintcon.org) is a premier platform for sharing knowledge, best practices, and cutting-edge solutions in maintenance, reliability, and asset management. Building on the success of previous editions, this year’s conference aims to be even more dynamic, insightful, and impactful.

With more than 2,200 delegates, 70 dedicated sponsors and exhibitors, 80 distinguished speakers, and eight engaging keynote sessions, Maintcon 2024 underscores the organisers’ unyielding commitment to excellence in the industry. Attendees can expect thought-provoking sessions, networking opportunities, and access to the latest innovations, the organisers state.

The conference’s theme, “Building Resilience in Assets for Sustainable Tomorrow,” highlights the digital transformation and sustainable innovations in maintenance, reliability, and asset management.

Maintcon 2024 is an ideal platform for international and regional professionals, researchers, service providers, and end users to explore the latest trends within this field since it combines transformation and technological progress with sustainability in this modern era, according to the organisers.

Maintcon 2024 will feature keynote sessions delivered by industry experts; it will recognise outstanding achievements, and celebrate organisations and individuals through the GSMR Excellence Award.

In addition, Women in Industry & Asset Management (WIAM) provides a dedicated forum for uplifting women professionals with opportunities and shared experiences.

The Innovation Corner showcases the latest technological innovations, tools, and solutions that enhance maintenance practices and optimise asset performance.  In addition, a series of technical sessions, workshops, and panel discussions will introduce innovations and ideas, providing further insights into the future.
