Organisers say CONEXPO Russia at CTT 2011 opened with a positive mood and shows growth as the Russian economy continues to improve and billions of dollars are allocated for infrastructure and related building projects.
Held at the Crocus International Exhibition Centre in Moscow on 31 May to 4 June, the Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM), the show's organiser, says registered exhibitors jumped 46% from last year and its outdoor and indoor exhibit areas saw a 30% increase in space.
The CTT show has over 750 exhibitors and over 100,000 sqm of space, both double-digit increases compared to 2010. Over 20,000 people visited the show.
AEM president Dennis Slater participated in and spoke at the opening press event for CTT Expo 2011 along with other show partners and supporters.
Show director Melissa Magestro says: "CONEXPO Russia exhibitors realise the enormous value of first-hand contact with buyers and decisionmakers in this expanding region and the opportunity to increase or strengthen brand presence."
This is the 12th year for CTT - the Construction Equipment and Technologies Specialised Demonstration Show, which is the largest construction trade show in Russia and Eastern Europe. AEM joined forces with CTT to establish a CONEXPO Russia exhibit area at CTT 2010.
The CONEXPO Russia partnership with CTT organiser Media Globe brings another international element to CTT with CONEXPO Russia's focus on OEM and North American products.
