Infdex '09 brings all the glamour and excitement of European and Asian interior design shows to Qatar. And with the interior design market in most developed countries still suffering the effects of the global financial crisis, Infdex '09 gives ambitious interior designers and furniture manufacturers the perfect business opportunity to penetrate the booming Qatari interior design market.

Already 85% sold out and growing 30 percent this year to reach 100 stands. Infdex '09 is Qatar's largest interior design and home furniture exhibition will be officially opened by His Excellency Sheikh Hamad Bin Jassim Bin Jabr Al Thani, Prime Minister and Foreign Minister of the State of Qatar, giving support to the Qatari interior design market and its important contribution to the Qatari economy.

Infdex '09 brings together a stimulating mix of new and established furniture and design specialists in a vibrant and interactive environment to showcase the latest designs from influential international designers, a dazzling Design Awards ceremony and much more to entertain and inspire the expected 12,000 trade and public visitors.

Georges Saliba, Qatar Expo Chief Operating Officer, says:
"Infdex '09 places doing business at the core of the event. This year we are introducing a number of features to help the interior design industry maximize opportunities in a difficult business environment."


Trade and public visitors will discover Infdex '09 is the ideal opportunity to meet companies representing a broad selection of interior design leaders from Europe, the Middle East & North Africa, and Qatar. The latest confirmed Infdex '09 exhibitors include Bo Concept, Living Spirit (www.livinggalery.com), IDS Group (Interior Design Services), New Art Overseas, Milano International for Trading & Industry and B5 Design (www.b5designqatar.com).

European interior designer Ligne Roset has chosen Infdex '09 to unveil its new 2010 collection. The leading French furniture designer is inviting existing and new customers to view its most visionary collection to date, featuring stunning designs for the Living, Dining and Sleeping areas of the home.

The record 100 exhibitors expected at Infdex '09 are encouraged to demonstrate their creativity and imagination as the exclusive Infdex Creative Awards - presented by International Design Guru Aziz Rebeiz - are presented for the second successive year.
