Exhibitors from 80 countries from around the world will participate in the International Property Show (IPS), which will be held from April 8-10 in Dubai.

The IPS, to be held at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre, will have developers of hotels, institutions, businesses, residential projects, offices and retail projects, as well as real-estate development authorities and free zones taking part in the show.

The exhibition, which is supported by the Dubai Land Department, has succeeded in getting wide international exposure due to the trust of foreign investors in the UAE’s construction sector.

Dawood Al Shezawi, CEO, Strategic Marketing & Exhibitions, organisers of IPS, said: “The real-estate sector registered organic growth last year. This is due to the vote of confidence of the local, Arab, and foreign investors who are allocating higher investment budgets for the UAE market, encouraged by the introduction of new legislation and decrees and a positive impact of other booming sectors.”

“The dynamism of UAE’s real estate market has whetted the appetite of investors further. The real estate market has witnessed a great leap in 2014 after the announcement of winning the bid for hosting Expo 2020 at the end of last year. We expect the listed real estate companies to notch further growth in 2014,” added Al Shezawi. - TradeArabia News Service
