Neva exhibition opens at Expoforum

Expoforum Convention and Exhibition Centre welcomed the opening of the 13th International Maritime Exhibition and Conference NEVA 2015. The exhibition is being held at two pavilions – F and G – across a space spanning more than 21,000 sq. metres. Participants include over 500 companies and enterprises from more than 34 countries worldwide.

Opening the event, St. Petersburg Governor Georgy Poltavchenko noted that the “NEVA 2015” exhibition and conference enjoys tremendous popularity among specialists in the fields of shipbuilding, oceanography and Arctic development. He also emphasised that in St. Petersburg, shipbuilding represents one of the city’s core industries: the Northern Capital is home to approximately 80% of the country’s total shipbuilding science-and-technology and engineering capacity and roughly 30% of the sector’s total output, with more than 40 locally-operating shipbuilding enterprises supplying jobs to 50,000 St. Petersburg residents.

ExpoForum International General Director Sergey Voronkov congratulated the assembled organisers and partners on the opening of the “NEVA” exhibition, one of the few to post (7%) growth in recent years. “One of the world’s best thematic exhibitions is being held at the new ExpoForum Convention and Exhibition Centre, on par with all applicable global standards. And with more than twice the exhibition space, that gives “NEVA” plenty of room to grow,” said Voronkov.

The exhibition exposition features the participation of the industry’s leading companies and enterprises –United Shipbuilding Corporation, TRANSAS Group, the Russian Maritime Register of Shipping, SKF and Marine Equipment, Nevsky Shipyard, Sovcomflot, the North-Western Shipping Company, and others. The featured companies are taking advantage of the exhibition to showcase their specialised goods and services. TRANSAS Group, for example, is presenting its cutting-edge integrated-bridge system T-BRIDGE – a uniquely-high-tech system-integration solution for effective crew decision-making and safe, comfortable maritime navigation.

Exhibition participants note the event’s impressive business opportunities. A representative of United Shipbuilding Corporation, for instance, explained that the expo generates significant business results, including the signing of high-value contracts and the holding of key business meetings with partners.

Exhibition organisers: Transtec Neva Exhibitions CJSC (Russia), East West Exhibition Management Ltd / Dolphin Exhibitions Ltd (Great Britain).
