The 2730 BICES 2013 exhibitor preparatory meeting and press conference has been held in Beijing, China ahead of the key show in the Chinese capital on October 15-18 2013.

During the pre-event for what will be the 12th Beijing International Construction Machinery Exhibition & Seminar, Su Zimeng, vice president and secretary general of the 2735 China Construction Machinery Association (CCMA) and general manager of BAICE, analysed the Chinese engineering machinery industry and explained the significance of BICES 2013.

Meanwhile, Huang Xiaomin, president of China Construction Machinery Co (6401 CNCMC), gave a detailed overview of the preparation work ahead of the major exhibition.

Other key speakers at the preparatory event and press conference held at the Beijing Jiuhua International Exhibition Center included Zhang Yazhou, a lawyer of Unitalen Attorneys at Law, who gave a presentation on intellectual property protection.
