Increasing international support for Dubai Property Investment Show

The exhibition has received positive interest from established and upcoming global property markets such as Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Malaysia, France, the U.K, Singapore, Germany and Spain. Over 70 international firms have expressed firm interest in attending the show so far, which is being held from 1 to 3 February, 2005, at the Dubai International Exhibition Centre.

Commenting on the enthusiastic response from international exhibitors, Guy Guillemard, Marketing Director of THE DOMUS GROUP, organisers of the show stated, 'Dubai Property Investment Show (www.dubaipropertyshow.com) aims to offer trade visitors and regional investors a comprehensive view of some of the most exciting global property markets. While the Middle East, with its billion dollar projects is one of the highlights of the show, we are delighted to see international developers and agents using the show as a platform to attract Arab funds and investment.'

'A major factor towards encouraging international participation is our holistic approach to the exhibition. The show will be complemented by several industry-related activities such as conferences, seminars and site visits during the same week, to offer visitors a comprehensive and indepth view of the property offered. All these activities will go into the making of the International Property Week. This translates into better exposure for exhibitors,' added Dawood Al-Shezawi, Chairman, Strategic Marketing, co-organisers of the show.

Dubai Property Investment Show will feature commercial property including office and mixed-use developments, shopping, leisure and entertainment centre, high and low-density residential apartments and villa developments, resorts and hotels, trade zones, special-purpose developments and land development.

'Meanwhile, we have also seen interest from exhibitors in Bahrain and Qatar from the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) and surrounding Middle East countries such as Lebanon. This has strengthened our offering to investors looking for an international portfolio of real estate developments,' concluded Guillemard.
