showcased its 36 years of experience in the exhibitions and conferences industry and examined the best international practices and trends on this industry. REC also benefitted from the knowledge and expertise exchange with international peers, which will reflect positively on the level of services provided, and thus would contribute to leveraging the local MICE industry as a whole in the Kingdom to help achieve the sector's broad goals as the preferred destination for creation of exhibitions and conferences in the region.
Khalid Alamdar, Director of Sales and Marketing at Riyadh Exhibitions Company, said "this participation comes in line with our strategic vision of attracting global events and forums to be hosted in the Kingdom, in addition to discussing the upcoming investment opportunities, benefiting from the international expertise and strengthening our presence globally."
