Cambodia Investment Review
The Lighthouse Club Cambodia will host a charity networking event focused on working-at-height safety 2:30PM on Friday, January 30, 2026, at Paparazzi Bar and Kitchen. Sponsored by Fallprotec Asia, the event will convene professionals from construction, engineering, real estate, and asset management.
A focus on safety as projects grow in scale
Running from 2:30pm to 5:00pm, the event comes as Cambodia’s construction sector continues to evolve toward larger, taller, and more complex developments. Working-at-height safety remains one of the most significant risk areas across construction and building maintenance, particularly as developers and asset owners face growing expectations around international standards and long-term compliance.
Fallprotec Asia will highlight how engineered fall protection and safe access solutions can be integrated into projects from the design stage through installation, inspection, and ongoing training. The discussion is expected to resonate with developers, consultants, and facility managers seeking to balance safety obligations with operational efficiency.
Safety, value, and investor expectations
Speaking ahead of the event, Ross Wheble, Managing Director of Knight Frank Cambodia, emphasised the broader business implications of safety standards. “Working-at-height safety is no longer just a compliance issue,” he said. “For investors and occupiers, it is increasingly tied to asset value, long-term operating costs, and reputational risk.”
His comments reflect a wider shift in the market, where safety performance is becoming an integral part of ESG considerations and asset due diligence.
Beyond technical discussions, the event aligns with Lighthouse Club Cambodia’s charitable mission. Entry is priced at USD 40, with proceeds supporting construction workers and their families, while also fostering industry fellowship.
