Highlight of the first congress day is the festive presentation of the 4th Global DIY-Lifetime Award taking place at the Stockholm City Hall.
Connected Home – Opportunities for DIYExpressions like Smart Home, Internet of Things and Connected Devices are buzzwords that you nowadays hear everywhere, but only few people are able to understand the profound impact that these technological changes will have in the DIY industry. The past two years have seen a significant increase in new developments and consumer adoption of this kind of products. Therefore, the largest DIY retailers in North America have already announced the launch of smart devices for security, heating, cooling, lighting and other appliances in their stores. Will this new paradigm bring significant opportunities for the home improvement industry? Is this the beginning of a new DIY business model?
Leadership – Engage to Deliver Maximum PerformanceWith the advent of a digitally driven revolution, innovative leadership plays a fundamental role within companies. Top managers must become leaders engaging their employees with their organizations and encouraging them to deliver the best of themselves. Leadership has become more than ever the cornerstone of every corporate culture at every level worldwide. Either all of the members of your team follow your new mindset, based on innovation and transformation, or your firm will not be able to thrive in a time where disruptors have changed the rules of the game.
Home Improvement around the World Our congress brings together top DIY managers from over 45 countries worldwide. The development of our industry vary from country to country. We will take you on a trip around the planet and show you the most successful strategies. Discover new trends and concepts that could become a benchmark and growth accelerator for your own business.

Home Improvement has become very popular in Sweden
during the last decades. More and more Swedish men
and women are motivated to perform DIY projects to
renovate their homes. As a result, the Swedish building
and home improvement market grew by 1.7 % in 2014
up to € 3.6 billion, according to HUI Research. Some of the
most well-known home improvement retailers in Sweden
are Byggmax, Beijer Bygg, K-Rauta, Bauhaus and Hornbach.
During the Store Tour, John W. Herbert will introduce you
to the newest trends in the greater area of Stockholm.

Ladies and Gentlemen,
We wish to invite you to the 4th Global DIY Summit, the best networking event for the home improvement industry where manufacturers and retailers have the opportunity to gather and exchange views on current trends within the global market.
This year the motto of our event is “A Disruptive World – New Trends in Home Improvement”. The planet we live in is more competitive and more challenging for retailers and manufacturers than ever before. The barriers to entry as it relates to the retail market are quickly becoming non-existent as the Internet is opening up the world for business.
The digital transformation in retail forced brands around the world to embrace and adopt websites, social media and, most recently, the mobile web. The ongoing disruption is making retail a hot bed of innovation and an industry in which the ingenious brands thrive.
Furthermore, with the rise of Internet of Things and Smart Homes, disruptors have also entered our industry! We are now on the edge of a new era of innovation in home improvement where many companies have to transform themselves or they will simply disappear.
So how did we get here? How did we land in this exciting yet disruptive age of retail? What will be the impact of these changes in home improvement? In light of this technological revolution, leadership from top decision- makers of our industry has become a key element. Today, DIY leaders are expected to cut a new path in the marketplace for their organization, to disrupt business as usual.
Come to Stockholm and make your own judgment on this disruptive world.
Best regards,
Ralf RahmedeGeneral Manager fediyma
