The Turkish Construction Machinery Show was visited by 31726 visitors of which 483 were foreign nationals. These figures point to a 38 % increase of interest compared to KOMATEK’s 2009 occurence.

Other figures that would contribute to indicating the size of the exhibition can be of interest as well. Exhibitors’ stand staff totalled to 3478 persons. Energy consumption during the exhibition approximately averaged to 1650 kilowatts per hour, which was provided totally by on-site generators.

As an outcome of the increase of interest in KOMATEK exhibitions Ankara has once again proven that it is the right city to organize Construction Machinery and Equipment Exhibitions for the sector. It has also pointed to the necessity of holding the next occurence of KOMATEK, which will be in 2013, at a beter infrastructured exhibition area. The efforts of Greater Municipality of Ankara on this issue are being closely followed. Eventhough the time and venue of KOMATEK 2013 exhibition will be announced within a few months from now, there are already demands for 2013 reservations. These requests will be announced and responded to upon Project completion, finalizing the decisions on location and establishment of supporting agreements. Priority will be given to our 2011 exhibitors during the reservation acceptance.
