ProCon backed by 14 patrons for 2020

Fourteen businesses are supporting the work of ProCon Leicestershire in 2020 as patrons of the property and construction network.

The backing of its patrons supports ProCon’s year of activities that connect people and businesses in the construction and property industries.

There are three new Patrons for 2020: the engineering company bsp consulting; town planning consultancy Landmark Planning; and the multi-disciplinary consultants Pick Everard.

Continuing their support are: legal business Allardice Associates; insurance brokers Berkeley Insurance Group; Harborough-based Corporate Architecture; contractor Danaher & Walsh; consulting engineers Diamond Wood and Shaw; professional services provider MDA Consulting; contractor Premier Development Contractors; the law firm Shakespeare Martineau; architects Stephen George + Partners; manufacturer Unique Window Systems; and contractor Willmott Dixon.

The backing of the businesses, including many based in Leicestershire, enables the 20-year-old organisation to run its series of events throughout the year for its 600-plus members.

The first event of 2020, at Leicester City’s King Power Stadium, covered the delivery of low or zero carbon buildings. Attendance at ProCon events can be part of professionals’ CPD (Continuing Professional Development).

The Patrons’ support also helps sustain ProCon’s website which provides a platform for individual members and firms to connect with each other and to share news and views.

ProCon chair Umesh Desai said: “The valuable backing of our patrons enables us to provide the many opportunities for our members to meet and share their knowledge, and to connect with each other online and in person.

“We thank our 2020 patrons for their support for ProCon Leicestershire and its membership. Their commitment to the organisation is much appreciated.”
