The region’s leading event dedicated to designing and constructing cost-effective, sustainable façades

The total value of contracts awarded in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia hit $66bn in 2011 and it will grow up to $72bn worth of contract awards in 2012. There is a vast amount of opportunity and investment going into mixed use development and high rise building projects in Saudi Arabia at the moment.

The present demand for economically viable construction projects in the Saudi Arabian public sector, coupled with the need to maximise the efficient use of natural resources has established Saudi Arabia as a prime market for construction contractors.

Building on the success of a number of Façade Design and Engineering summits conducted across the region within the last few years, we have designed this event to provide you with an excellent opportunity to stay up-to-date with the latest tender announcements and projects as well as allow you to position yourself as leading solution provider in the market.

Projects to be discussed:

  • King Abdullah University of Science & Technology
  • Kingdom Tower
  • King’s Road Tower
  • CMA tower
  • King Abdullah Economic City (KAEC)
  • Sudair City Development
  • Princess Noura bint AbdulRahman University for Women in Riyadh
  • Prince Abdulaziz bin Mousaed Economic City
  • Knowledge Economic City (KEC)
  • King Abdulaziz International Airport (KAIA) Development
