The head of the Russian Ministry of Construction approved the concept of the 100+ TechnoBuild forum and exhibition

Irek Fayzullin, Minister of Construction, Housing and Communal Services of the Russian Federation, approved the format of the VIII International Forum and Exhibition 100+ TechnoBuild and its main theme – "Dialogue of the Regions". The meeting of the organizing committee was also attended by the Governor of the Sverdlovsk region Evgeny Kuyvashev and Senator of the Federation Council Arkady Chernetsky.

The forum and exhibition are scheduled for October 5-7, 2021. They are to be held at the Yekaterinburg-Expo International Exhibition Center.

"Special attention should be paid to customer training programs, special sections and directions for students and young professionals. To implement this idea, the MGSU Research Institute and the Public Law Company Unified Customer in the Field of Construction will be part of the co-organizers," Irek Fayzullin said.

In addition, at the suggestion of the Minister, the list of topics covered under the 100+ will include prefabricated buildings that have shown their importance in emergency response and during a pandemic. It is also planned to raise the issue of prefabricated residential housing facilities.  

"The Forum has established itself as an effective communication platform for professional interaction, discussion of key issues in the construction industry, and the search for new solutions. Of course, the support of the Federal Ministry of Construction and Housing and Communal Services in the preparation of the event is very important to us. This raises the status of the event, allows us to form a large–scale agenda, and put into practice the innovations and ideas proposed by experts," said Evgeny Kuyvashev, Governor of the Sverdlovsk Region.

The Organizing Committee participants noted a great prospect for the 100+ AWARDS engineering and architecture award, which appeared this year as part of the 100+ TechnoBuild. Applications for participation have already been submitted by the largest construction and design companies in the country.

Evgeny Kuyvashev stressed that all epidemiological safety measures will be strictly observed during the event. Based on the situation, a decision may be made on additional requirements for guests and participants, such as a negative COVID-19 test or a certificate confirming vaccination.

Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin is expected to take part in the 100+.
