Eurasian crane and transport event

Written by Alex Dahm - 03 Jan 2012

 

In response to strong interest and investment in Turkey and much of the surrounding region, KHL has announced a new event. International Cranes and Transport Turkey is a one-day conference and networking reception to be held in Istanbul, on 05 June 2012, one day before the start of the Ankomak construction show. The venue is the Wow hotel, next to the Istanbul Expo Center where the show is held.

Turkey is widely known as the bridge between Europe and Asia. Its geographical position provides a unique gateway to Asia and it has close economic ties to the Middle East and North Africa. It is ideally placed in west-central Eurasia to draw in business from these areas, plus post-Soviet states and Central Asian republics (known colloquially as "the 'stans").

As the world's 15th largest economy in 2011 Turkey recorded economic growth, in the first quarter, of 11%. Investment in infrastructure and power generation projects, in particular, shows no sign of slowing down. Construction activity for the region as a whole is in excess of US$2.9 billion a year.

The conference and networking reception follows the growing number of successful events that KHL Group has held in other parts of the world.

Full details and the programme will be announced in due course. For more information see www.khl.com/events
