EIRE: Real Estate in Milan for Emerging Countries, the Mediterranean and Balkan areas (EU)

This years EXPO ITALIA (EIRE 2010) to be held June 8 - 10 in Milan, will welcome 473 companies and institutions who are represented there, and over 14,000 professional operators (from over 50 Countries) are expected to attend. About 100seminars and events at the stands will take place during the conference, in the 35,000 m² exhibition area. More than 300 registered journalists are expected to be in attendance.

EIRE has always been a rich international context in which to meet with companies, investors, and industry experts, allowing a synergy of development and an evaluation of new markets.

"With the attention afforded to the Mediterranean Basin, EIRE represents the ideal occasion in which to present our investment possibilities to this business community. EIRE provides a great opportunity to meet with different companies, both from Italy and other parts of the world. We have had successful encounters with representatives from various companies, with an exchange of some good business ideas. We're convinced that both parties will reap the benefits of these ideas." These were the comments of Matej Skočir, advisor for JAPTI, the Republic of Slovenia's Public Agency for Foreign Business and Investment, following his participation in last year's edition.

Moreover, thanks to concentrated one-to-one meetings organised by EIRE staff prior to the fair, between businesses, foreign institutions and some of the most important Italian real estate companies, communication in relation to the projects and requirements of exhibiting companies has been even more effective: "During the fair we held numerous B2B meetings for the purpose of presenting our collection of companies. I believe this was the most efficient method of meeting potential business partners in the context of an international property show".
