World Facilities Management Day is an annual celebration that gives us the opportunity to recognize the successes and contributions of facility managers around the world.

As a leader in facilities management solutions, Sodexo embraces the occasion as a time to come together with industry professionals and associations across the globe to discuss the advancement of the profession and the future of careers in FM, which is exactly what we did during the celebration on June 4, when several of our leaders offered to share their perspectives on hot topics in the industry and predictions of what’s to come.
