(MENAFN- Gulf Times) Project Qatar 2021 has been wrapped up with a successful comeback after attracting 15,000 professional visitors. The expo, which saw registration of a total of 150 exhibitors from 13 countries, provided new opportunities for the participating companies to catch up with their industry peers, reconnect with customers to market their products and services, but most importantly, sign new agreements and forge partnerships for the future.
The vibrant presence of visitors and business networking held during the four-day mega-event reflect a positive and strong comeback for the construction sector as they look to meet project deadlines in the run-up to the country's hosting of the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
