The line-up includes the 31st Build Bangladesh and 25th Real Estate Expo, the 28th Power Bangladesh, 23rd Solar Bangladesh and 8th Dhaka International Lighting Expo, and the 8th Water Bangladesh International Expo. Organisers describe Build Bangladesh as the country’s largest and longest-running international exhibition focused on building and construction. Participants named by organisers include Siemens, Huawei, Rahimafrooz, Zoomlion, LESSO Bangladesh and Walton. A Sri Lanka Pavilion will operate with the Sri Lanka Export Development Board.
The shows will also host the DELTA Award for Architecture, which recognises sustainable and context-responsive building design in Bangladesh. The International Finance Corporation, the private-sector arm of the World Bank Group, is the strategic partner. The awards ceremony will be held on November 10 at ICCB, followed by a three-day Delta Festival of Architecture from November 12 to 14.
Seminars on construction, renewable energy, lighting and water will run alongside the exhibitions. Organisers said bringing the shows together would widen networking opportunities for local and international companies, engineers, architects and buyers.
CEMS-Global, established in 1992, says it has organised more than 762 trade shows worldwide, with a portfolio spanning textiles, power, construction and healthcare.
