It brought together industry leaders, manufacturers, engineers, policymakers, exhibitors and stakeholders from Nigeria and abroad around an exhibition of modern HVACR systems, refrigeration technologies, ventilation solutions, cold-chain innovation and smart energy products, with goodwill messages emphasising sustainable cooling technologies, energy efficiency and climate-responsive infrastructure across Africa’s developing economies.

The week’s engagements, spanning exhibitions, technical showcases and the ASHRAE Distinguished Lecture, underscored the growing relevance of HVACR technologies to sustainable development, energy efficiency, indoor air quality and smart infrastructure in Nigeria, and reinforced the importance of collaboration across engineering, construction, manufacturing and environmental sustainability in developing the next generation of HVACR professionals.
