WELCOME
KHL Group is delighted to announce a new top level conference and networking event to exchange information and discuss best practice on topics vital to the crane and specialized transport industry.
International Cranes and Transport Latin America will be a one day, global crane and heavy transport conference and networking event, with emphasis on Latin America. Held at the five star Tivoli Hotel in São Paulo, CATLA will be on 28 May, the day before the popular M&T Expo construction equipment show opens.
CATLA has the support of major international equipment manufacturers, end users and their associations, notably the SC&RA from the USA and Sobratema and Sindipesa from Brazil.
BRAZILIAN BOOM
Brazil is a key developing economy – the ‘B’ in BRICS – and the Brazilian construction sector has been booming. The football World Cup in 2014 and the Olympics in 2016 require massive infrastructure investment. Added to this are major road, airport and power generation projects, oilfield and port development.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND AND WHY
Delegates will be senior executives from leading global and Latin American user companies, major international equipment manufacturers, plus contractors, suppliers and relevant professionals.
The São Paulo conference will focus on matters of most concern to the global crane and heavy transport industry. Topics are likely to include:

STRONG FOUNDATIONS
The conference is organised by KHL, publisher of International Cranes and Specialized Transport, American Cranes & Transport and International Cranes and Transport Turkey magazines, and their sister titles Construção Latino-Americana and Construcción Latinoamericana.
KHL has a strong track record in organising top class conferences in the crane and heavy transport sectors. The World Crane and Transport Summit was described as “the best conference I have ever attended” by a senior delegate. One of the speakers described it as the most professional conference he had presented at.
These events bring together a global community of senior executives from international contractors, user companies, equipment manufacturers, suppliers and professional firms. They are interested in building new business relationships, debating global best practice and learning about new technical developments and standards.
