Middle East Cranes is the leading industry meeting for the crane and lifting-related industries in the Middle East, providng critical information and networking opportunities.

Business in the Middle East is always more complicated than the picture painted by the general media.

For example, for many years it has been a commonly accepted truth that “a quarter of the world's cranes are in Dubai”; a truth that has been debunked thoroughly by speakers at Middle East Cranes and by Cranes Today.

Now that some iconic projects have been postponed, the story you'll read everywhere is that the whole region is grinding to a halt. The recent financial turmoil in Dubai will have done little to change this view

In fact, there are still plenty of business opportunities in the region: the problem is knowing how to access them.

Middle East Cranes 2010 will give you the tools to do that.

Middle East Cranes gives you the opportunity to find out where the best opportunities are, to discover more about the most efficient tools for the contracts you want to win, and to meet two hundred of the most influential purchasers and suppliers in the lifting industry.

Middle East Cranes 2010 will help you understand the lifting industry in the Gulf. You can now apply to attend, speak, or sponsor.

Here is what some of our attendees at the 2009 event said:

“As a manufacturer's representative, I appreciate the information on the market as well as the information on regulatory issues provided during the forum”
Klaus Meissner, director of product integrity, Terex Cranes

“After speaking at Middle East Cranes, I was asked for quotes on potential orders worth more than EUR2m”
