The Construction Week Saudi Arabia Conference 2009 will begin tomorrow (Wednesday, May 13) in Jeddah.
The event, the first of its kind organised by CW in the Kingdom, gathers together leading decision-makers, industry professionals and legal and financial representatives.
“Delegates will gain a comprehensive insight through case-study presentations on the best modes and practices. This will enable them to set immediate and long-term strategies for the Saudi market where the winners will not necessarily be the strongest or the most technologically advanced companies,” said conference organiser Oscar Wendel.
“Securing return on investment here will require forging the right partnerships needed to correctly identify and overcome operational challenges by adapting to the market environment.”
