IPC Breakfast Forum - May 2026

The healthcare construction sector is evolving rapidly, shaped by changing regulations, increasing complexity, and a growing focus on safety, compliance, and long-term performance.

That’s why we’re partnering with the Healthcare Infection Society (HIS) and SafeBuild Solutions to bring industry professionals together for our upcoming IPC Breakfast Forum on Thursday 7th May 2026 at the SDS Hub in London and remotely via Teams.

A space for meaningful industry dialogue.

At Specialist Door Solutions, we believe progress happens through collaboration. Our forums are designed to create open, honest conversations between the people shaping healthcare environments - from architects and contractors to NHS estates teams.

What is IPC — and why now?

IPC is becoming an increasingly important topic across healthcare construction, influencing how projects are designed, delivered and maintained. But with change comes uncertainty:

• What does IPC mean in practice?
• How does it impact specification and delivery?
• What are the challenges and what are the solutions?

This forum aims to answer those questions through real-world insight and expert discussion.

What to expect on the day.

Attendees can expect:

• A panel discussion with industry leaders
• Actionable insights you can apply to live projects
• Open conversation around current challenges
• Opportunities to connect with peers across the sector

Like previous SDS events, the focus is not just on theory, but on practical, experience-led insight that helps move the industry forward.

Join the conversation.

As the healthcare sector continues to adapt, staying informed and connected has never been more important.

Join us on Thursday 7th May, 09:30-12:00noon and be part of the conversation shaping the future of healthcare environments.
