Dear members and esteemed stakeholders of our sector. We continue our work intensively as the representative of the ready mixed concrete sector, which is the most basic branch of construction.
Our work on "BETON 2023 Ready Mixed Concrete Congress and Exhibition" held by our Association under the organization of TG Expo continues at full throttle. We will hold the BETON 2023 Ready Mixed Concrete Congress on 8-10 November 2023 and the BETON 2023 Ready Mixed Concrete, Cement, Aggregate, Construction Technologies and Equipment Exhibition on 8-11 November 2023 at the Istanbul Expo Center. Our Exhibition, which we will organize for the 11th time in a total area of 15,708 square meters, will host over 100 participants from the sectors related to construction and ready mixed concrete, which is its most basic branch, and a total of more than 12,000 industry professionals, 3,000 of whom are foreigners from Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. BETON 2023 Ready Mixed Concrete Congress, which we will organize in honor of Prof. Dr. Mehmet Ali Taşdemir, simultaneously with our fair, will contribute to the development of the sector as in previous years. Along with invited speakers, about 90 papers from the sector, public, and academia will be presented at the Congress. Academicians and researchers, as well as representatives of the ready mixed concrete industry and sub-industry companies, will also keep close track of our Congress, which will be attended by more than 500 delegates.
As you know, this year, we are experiencing the happiness and pride of celebrating the 100th anniversary of our Republic, which our beloved nation proclaimed as a result of an unprecedented victory in history under the leadership of Veteran Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. I invite our researchers, stakeholders, and all our friends who provide services and materials to our sector, to participate in BETON 2023, which we organized on the 100th anniversary of our Republic, and to follow the latest developments.
