Panasonic has announced that David Frise, CEO of Building Engineering Services Association (BESA), will be the UK judge for the Panasonic PRO Awards 2018, which celebrates excellence in the design, specification, installation and commissioning of Panasonic heating and cooling systems.
David Frise is CEO of the Building Engineering Services Association (BESA), the UK's leading trade organisation representing firms active in the design, installation, commissioning, maintenance, control and management of engineering systems and services in buildings.

Commenting on the news, David said, “I look forward to joining the judging panel for this year’s PRO Awards. It’s extremely impressive seeing projects that focus on sustainability whilst utilising Panasonic products to save energy and meet the unique demands of each application.”
