Cityscape Abu Dhabi will be bigger than ever

With the global economic slowdown dampening enthusiasm for short-term speculative property investment, Cityscape Abu Dhabi which, which opens Sunday, is going back to its roots, say organisers IIR Exhibitions.
Despite the downturn, however, the real estate event of the year for the capital of the United Arab Emirates will be more than 30% bigger than in 2008 in terms of exhibition space with virtually all major developers taking part.
Cityscape Abu Dhabi runs until Wednesday (22 April 2009) at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre and brings together investors, architects, designers, developers, government authorities and key decision makers involved in the design and construction of public and private real estate developments.
Running alongside the exhibition is the Real Estate Finance and Investment Conference, featuring more than 100 speakers from the world's leading finance, investment and real estate companies. The conference will be a forum for in-depth discussion of current market challenges.
Real estate development and architectural companies at the forefront of the industry will be recognised at the Cityscape Middle East Real Estate Awards, sponsored by Etisalat, RAK Ceramics, Gaggenau and 2ig. Entries will be judged on their contribution to world architecture culture, innovation and imagination, respect for people, the planet, context, environmental awareness and appropriateness throughout the Middle East and North Africa.
