C&D Consultancy’s Mike Kehoe to speak at rescheduled Turkish Demolition Conference.

We are delighted to announce that our very own Mike Kehoe has been chosen as one of the guest speakers at next year’s Demolition Conference in Istanbul, Turkey. The rescheduled event – which is organised jointly by D&Ri publisher KHL and its Turkish partner APA Publishing – will be held on Thursday March 12, 2015 at the famous Marriot Asia Hotel on the Asian banks of the Bosphorus.

The event, primarily intended for the developing Turkish demolition industry, will once again see a mix of presentations from relevant speakers from that country as well as from a number of leading figures in the global demolition industry.

“The Turkish demolition industry has really taken off in the past few years, thanks in no small part to the Turkish Demolition Association,” Mike Kehoe says. “The timing for this latest event is perfect as the Turkish ministry is currently drafting new regulations to monitor and control this growing industry, and they are keen to learn from the experience of other nations.”

Industry veteran Kehoe is a perfect guest speaker candidate. Having joined the C&D Consultancy team just over a year ago, he has quickly become the recognised expert in inner city demolition, carrying out extensive and ongoing works with the likes of Berkeley Homes across London. Furthermore, Kehoe is uniquely able to speak about the full gamut of the demolition process from pre-start documentation, through risk assessment, methodology and training to contract sign-off.

“There is no question that, in many aspects of demolition, the UK leads the way. We are the safest, most regulated demolition industry in the world; and that provides us with a unique perspective from which to educate and assist emerging markets,” Kehoe concludes. “I am looking forward to the visit to Istanbul and to sharing with the Turkish developments some of the key methodologies that have established the UK as the world leader in demolition.”
