Fabio Bruno Pinto will speak on a Bahamas demolition project

Fabio Bruno Pinto, managing director of Brazil-based contractor Fabio Bruno Construções – which recently established an operation in the USA itself – will speak on a particularly challenging project for the company that took place in the Bahamas.

Meanwhile Grant Styles of Erith Contractors, who co-presented with his colleague David Darsey at the Dublin summit in 2018, returns to present on the demolition requirements of the Macallan Clinic project in London.

If you are interested in joining Fabio and Grant on stage in Boston, please contact steve.ducker@khl.com with a short summary of your presentation idea.

The WDS is now in its 11th year, and will once again combine a networking drinks reception on the first evening followed by the summit during the daytime of Thursday and the World Demolition Awards dinner that night.
