Dubai Mega Projects 2009
At a time when the regional project industry is facing a very uncertain future, the need to have up to date, relevant and accurate information is vital to the success of any business. MEED Events’ Dubai Mega Projects 2009 being held on the 15th - 17th March 2009 at the Westin Hotel Dubai, is the leading forum for industry professionals to gain the latest information on Dubai’s mega project market. Speaking about the forthcoming event Edmund O’Sullivan, Chairman for MEED Events, commented, "This event comes at a critical time for the region’s mega projects and developers. Each market within the region is reacting differently to circumstances and in the short term some projects are being cancelled, some delayed and others are continuing. "In recent months, however, there has been a marked increase in regional state investment projects. At the end of 2008 it was announced by Dubai that it was to increase its public spending by 42% to US$ 10.3bn this year and Saudi Arabia, which has the biggest public spending plans in the region, announced an expansionary fiscal policy in late December 2008 and revealing that expenditure in 2009 would be US$ 127bn. Interestingly, the current low cost of materials may even be of benefit for many of the state investment projects." Dubai Mega Projects 2009 has been designed as the forum for fact finding, intelligence gathering and high level networking centred specifically on the major project developments in Dubai at a time when the need for detailed information is critical. Leading government authorities, key stakeholders, developers, project managers, consultants and contractors will be outlining the key issues, facts and information pertaining to the mega projects market in Dubai. Over two days attendees will be able to gain access to cutting-edge information on the current status, scale and future opportunities of Dubai’s mega project market and this event offers a unique opportunity to meet and do business with the key decision makers and hear their future plans, strategies and timescales. Discussion topics at the conference include Dubai’s Strategic Plan 2015, urban development, environmental sustainability, tourism trends, ways of meeting the current and future transport challenge, utility infrastructure and project delivery challenges.|
