Exhibitions in Dubai, UAE for Building & Construction

Dubai’s construction services industry is undergoing a transformative phase, marked by significant strides in technology adoption and innovative construction methodologies. The infusion of cutting-edge technology is revolutionizing the landscape, which in turn enables civil construction firms to achieve unprecedented speed and efficiency in project completion. Advancements made across all forms of construction technology are essential drivers of efficiency. In recent years, the building and construction sector in Dubai has witnessed a major surge in the integration of technology throughout various stages of the construction process. From planning and design to project preparation, quality assessment, cost estimation and scheduling, technology is streamlining operations. One notable example is the utilization of 3D-printing technology, which facilitates the rapid and seamless creation of intricate structures. This technological leap opens up numerous opportunities for expansion within the construction sector not just in Dubai, but in the whole of the United Arab Emirates. Dubai, renowned for its quick pace of development, ranks consistently among the world's most active and competitive construction markets. The Dubai building and construction sector faced significant challenges in 2015 and 2016 that had to do with a prolonged drop in oil prices against the strengthening of the US dollar. These coupled with rising material costs at the time led to a shrinking in public spending, which naturally slowed down construction. However, this short-term climate resolved itself in the run-up to Expo 2020 thanks to the launch of significant projects initiated in 2017-18. Government investments infused the construction sector with new activity in large-scale transport infrastructure. The ongoing recovery of the tourism and hospitality industries (Dubai has stated its plan to attract 25 million tourists by 2025) is expected to propel the commercial construction sector forward. This holistic approach ensures a diversified and resilient construction industry that aligns with the emirate's vision of sustainable growth.
