About 100+ participants: "The event is comparable to the largest international exhibitions and conferences"

The International Construction Forum and the 100+ TechnoBuild Exhibition, which took place in October 2020, gathered 8.5 thousand offline visitors and 14 thousand online viewers, despite the pandemic. But the best thing about how everything went is not the numbers, but the feedback from the participants.

Mikhail Vyatkin, Chairman of the Expert Advisory Council of the Sverdlovsk branch of the Union of Architects of Russia:

"We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the organizers of 100+ for the opportunity to be included in the business program of the next one–day forum, Architecture and Urban Planning Arch Eurasia 2020. This year, the pandemic significantly interfered with the holding of mass events, and we were worried about the attendance of our forum. But the reality exceeded expectations – all four sessions of Arch Eurasia were sold out, while those who could not attend the forum were able to watch the online broadcast thanks to the brilliant organization."

Rafael Sharafutdinov, a leading researcher at the N.M. Gersevanov Research Institute of Economics, JSC NIC Stroitelstvo:

"In terms of organization and scale, the event is comparable to the largest international exhibitions and conferences in the field of construction. The business program reflects the most relevant legal and technical aspects in construction. By organizing such an event, we can share our experiences and learn from others. The forum is attended by specialists and developers from all over the country, which makes it possible to find new customers and partners. The forum allows discussing the regulatory and legal framework and getting feedback from document users, which further helps to find the right direction for the development of the regulatory framework."

Natalia Agafonova, Head of the Ingrad Project BIM Department:

"100+ is a unique event. Speakers from different countries, many halls with different topics, where all aspects of design and construction are simultaneously covered: engineering systems, BIM technologies, architecture, innovations, constructive solutions, development. The opportunity to network with colleagues from all over Russia, and beyond. Despite the "covid" season, the forum was held offline and with a fairly large number of participants. It's perfectly organized! We look forward to next year!"

Artem Filimonov, Commercial Director of the Siblift Pension Fund:

"I really liked the design of the pavilions in the same style. It is attractive and important that the top developers of the Urals are represented at the exhibition. The objectives of our participation in the event are communication with developers and the presentation of new technologies. They have been achieved. It is also a pleasure to see and communicate with representatives of other elevator factories; the exchange of experience is very useful in our field of activity. All organizational issues are being resolved promptly, for which special thanks to the organizers."

Ilya Bartosh, Head of the Strategic Development Department of the Construction Industry of the Ministry of Construction and Infrastructure Development of the Sverdlovsk Region:

"The Forum is a place where industry representatives can get to know each other and start communicating. We see how the Yekaterinburg construction community has come together, including in preparation for the forum, burning issues important for the city and the region are being discussed – and this is already a huge benefit. And we can see the interest it arouses among federal authorities and people from all over the world. Unfortunately, everyone who wanted to could not come this year, but this is not so important, because hybrid communication schemes appear instantly. The center for the development of the professional construction industry is needed not only by the region, but also by the country as a whole, because Moscow is full of events. And I gave it 100+."
