Not knowing what to expect I was very surprised with the MBF. It was a great pleasure to be able to meet developers, builders, architects, managers, entrepreneurs and others and be able to inspire them and speak about how important design is to all fields of the built environment. design shapes the future and the betterment of society. Design is about evolving our culture and physical landscape. MBF is a vital and necessary part of the design community driven to inspire and embrace the physical world.

The 2024 MBF was an extraordinary experience in a beautiful country. I was pleased to attend and honored to speak about historic preservation and earthquake engineering, two key topics in Croatia and all of Europe. Maintaining heritage structures can lead to an improved appreciation of the past and the development of cultural tourism.
Carlo Stanga
Architect, illustrator and author
As an architect and illustrator of buildings and cities, I am enthusiastic about representing a metaphorical image that aims to restore the values and strength of an international fair like MBF, which among other things takes place in a place so rich in beauty and inspiration like Rovinj, Croatia. I have designed an ideal MBF city, where the values, the positive comparison between old and new, dynamism and the ability to create communication, collaborations and connections with the whole world can be found, which are typical elements of a reference fair like this…

I had the pleasure of attending the Masters of Building Fair this October, and it was an exceptional experience. The event brought together industry leaders, innovative ideas, and valuable networking opportunities.
Ben Smith
Co-founder Restate
Fantastic event, so smooth, well-organised and enjoyable. Very easy to meet and get to know people quickly because of the scale and layout. The venue was easy to get to and Rovinj a good size town and setting. The scale made it relaxing and the atmosphere was on the enjoyable/relaxed side whilst the talks made it engaging and professionally very worthwhile. The parties and dinner really cemented new connections and made it a memorable event people will be wanting more of. Well done to all the organisers at every level, attention to detail was first class.

Running to greet a beloved face that’s smiling from ear to ear on the other side of the room, when you least expect it, is a beautiful experience. But when this happens with dozens of other people, in an environment that challenges your creativity, your mind, and brings fresh information from the world of construction, real estate, and leading technological trends, it’s something else. Surrounded by top-tier exhibitors and experienced professionals, with your senses taken care of by great food and fantastic music…
