Dubai property show attracts top exhibitors

Dubai The third edition of the International Property Show will be held at the Dubai International Exhibition Centre from April 3 to 5, 2007. The show to be hosted by Strategic Marketing and Exhibitions is the comprehensive annual trade exhibition for international and Middle East property markets, according to a spokesman. The overwhelming success of the previous editions of the event has meant that a greater number of exhibitors from around the world have already confirmed their participation in International Property Show 2007, prompting the organisers to increase exhibition space. International Property Show 2007 will be held as part of the International Property Week. ‘Dubai continues to be the region’s most strategically important venue for property and real estate exhibitions, given the emirate’s prominence as a business and tourist destination. The International Property Show has established itself as one of the most sought-after property exhibitions in the region, and we are pleased that each year the show is attracting a larger number of exhibitors,’ said managing director, Strategic Marketing, Dawood Al Shezawi. ‘We expect a 35 per cent growth for the 2007 edition of show compared to 2006, which has led us to significantly extend the exhibition area at the venue.’ Already exhibitors from 15 countries including England, Germany, South Africa, India, Spain, Turkey, Bahrain, France and Malaysia have confirmed their participation in International Property Show 2007, with several more expected to register in the coming weeks, the spokesman added. A significant percentage of exhibitors who took part in the 2006 edition of the show in February have also confirmed their presence for next year, which underlines the show’s success and popularity. The International Property Show features exciting projects from across the world including commercial property, shopping, leisure and entertainment centers, high and low-density residential apartments and villa developments, resorts and hotels, trade zones, special-purpose developments and land development. The underlying objective of the show is to bring together regional and international exhibitors, property developers, financiers, real estate agents and consultants, designers and others involved in the real estate industry in the UAE, the Arab world and other thriving real estate markets of the world. Since the show will be held during the International Property Week, visitors and participants can also benefit from a series of industry-related workshops, seminars, and conferences that will be held at the venue.
