CEMS-Global – Conference and Exhibition Management Services Ltd. – USA and CEMS Lanka, the multinational exhibition organiser since 1992, with its operations in eight countries and organising over 40 exhibitions per annum, announced its premier international ‘Power’ series of exhibitions to Sri Lanka.
The ‘14th Power Sri Lanka 2016 International Expo’ is focused on the development of power generation and transmission, alternative power, solar power, energy and renewable energy sectors of Sri Lanka while the ‘Con-Expo Sri Lanka 2016 Int’l Expo’ is an international exhibition for construction materials, method and equipment.
The exhibitions will be held from 23 to 25 March at the Sri Lanka Exhibition and Convention Centre (SLECC), Colombo.
On the same dates, concurrent exhibitions will also be held, namely, (a) 12th Renewable Energy Sri Lanka 2016 Int’l Expo and 9th Solar Sri Lanka 2016 Int’l Expo.
With the above exhibitions in one go, it will be a comprehensive exhibition focused not only on the entire power and energy sector of Sri Lanka but will also cater to the needs of power and energy and construction for the entire industry sector of the country.
CEMS-Global’s ‘Power’ series of exhibitions is an international branded series focused on South and South-East Asia and is held annually in Bangladesh and Sri Lanka and the Con-Expo series of exhibitions is held in Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.
‘Con-Expo Sri Lanka 2016 Int’l Expo’ will be a glittering showcase of construction materials, method and equipment. It will reveal to the country the rapid developments in the industry as well as new technology components. The neat layouts of the show provides an ample opportunity to the consumers of housing to see the latest offerings in the market as well as to the business visitor to carry out networking in a highly-enabled environment. The Con-Expo is therefore not only a networking ground, but also a place to find business partners and strategic alliances for manufacturing, outsourcing, sub-contracting, design and development as well as direct marketing.
CEMS USA is organising the ‘Con-Expo’ with an agenda to make it a growth engine for companies and a development tool for this sector in Sri Lanka.
This exhibition will bring together under one roof all stakeholders in the power and energy industry under one B2B platform and a significant leap can be taken in Sri Lanka’s power and energy sector by close interaction between the exhibitors of the exhibition from over 10 countries and the local entrepreneurs leading to successful partnerships and joint ventures to accomplish the Government’s vision of fulfillment of people’s aspirations and successfully facing the challenges of the sector.
With the ever-growing power and energy needs of Sri Lanka thus making a need to explore newer opportunities in the power, energy, PV (Photo Voltaic) and renewable energy sectors of Sri Lanka, the 14th Power Sri Lanka 2016 International Expo will be the perfect B2B platform for the entire power and energy industry of Sri Lanka including Sri Lankan industry stakeholders who will attend and get the opportunity to see the latest technologies and innovations in the power generation and energy sector, thus delivering a great networking opportunity.
The 14th Power Sri Lanka 2014 International Expo will provide Exhibitors a not-to-be-missed opportunity further establish business contacts and get face-to-face and interact directly with the visiting trade delegations, industrialists, importers, distributors and agencies, hence a great and only B2B platform of its kind in Sri Lanka and a unique opportunity with a rapidly-developing industry sector where investments are now on a rise with new industrialisation making Sri Lanka a very important business destination in South Asia.
Hence with display of latest innovations and technology of the world in the power and energy sector at the 14th Power Sri Lanka 2016 International Expo with its concurrent exhibitions on renewable energy and e-power, the expo will play an important role in familiarising the local entrepreneurs with the newest technology right at our doorsteps, in this highly-potential sector of our country with a huge scope for expansion. The Government also wants to seek new technology with emphasis on tapping the alternative energy sources for power generation which would take a big load off our existing reserves used for generation.
Besides exhibitors from over 10 countries, there will also be visitors coming to Sri Lanka from different parts of the world to visit the 14th Power Sri Lanka 2016 International Expo to familiarise themselves with the power and energy sector of Sri Lanka and see the investment climate where the Government is encouraging foreign investments in the power and energy sector.
The expo will bring world-class technology which would be beneficial to upgrade the power and energy sector and also play an important role by assembling the entire business community of Sri Lanka from all the industry sectors of our country under one roof, thus creating a one-of-a-kind networking opportunity ever seen in the country and to appraise them of the latest developments and technology available in the sector.
The show will be open for trade and public visitors from 23-25 March from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily and entry is free.
