Intermat Middle East is Born!

The very first Intermat Middle East will take place March 28 - 30, 2011, in the Abu Dhabi National Exhibitions Company Centre in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.
Intermat Middle East will take advantage of the Arabian Construction Week held simultaneously to draw numerous visitors from the Middle East, Africa, the Gulf, Iran and the Eurasian countries.

In developing a trade event for the United Arab Emirates, Comexposium and its partners will give professionals from the worldwide road and urban infrastructure and interurban transport industries the opportunity to penetrate the MENA markets (Middle East and Northern Africa), whose major project portfolio totals $3 trillion. In 2010, the United Arab Emirates will form the largest market in the region with 1600 projects underway in construction, non-residential buildings, civil engineering/infrastructures and tourism.

Intermat which takes place every 3 years in Paris and, in the last for 25 years, has become the second largest construction sector exhibition worldwide, is joining forces with MECOM Forums, an international company located in Abu Dhabi, to launch Intermat Middle East in 2011.

Creating Intermat Middle East, a meeting place for international equipment and techniques suppliers with construction companies, was a logical step in view of the Middle Eastern countries’ development.

“A large number of Intermat exhibitors, with the support of their professional bodies, have already shown great interest in the event. In fact, the Intermat Middle East exhibition launch fits with their current export strategy for this part of the world so they have responded very positively to our invitation. Our target is to welcome 180 exhibitors in 20 000 m2 of gross exhibition area,” declares Maryvonne Lanoë, Intermat exhibition manager. “Thanks to this initiative and to the global reach of the Intermat brand, we can guarantee our exhibitors the opportunity to fulfil their export sales and marketing ambitions in the MENA region,” she adds.

The next Arabian Construction Week will combine three events dedicated to the construction industries: Green Building Middle East, Future Build Middle East and Civil Engineering Middle East.
