A construction equipment exhibition will be held in Mongolian capital Ulan Bator from 19-22 June 2013. The organiser expects 120 international exhibitors to attend the event, which is being held at the Buyant Ukhaar sports complex, located next to the city’s international airport. The Future Mongolia show will include 3,000m2 of hall space and 4,500m2 of outdoor exhibition area. The trade fair is being promoted by the Mongolian State Government and the city Ulan Bator and is expected to capitalise on the country’s massive economic growth rate, predicted to be from 15-18% for 2013. Participating at the last event were major manufacturers including 178 Caterpillar, 236 Hyundai, 718 Liebherr and 2395 Wirtgen.

Mongolia’s economy is booming due to demand for its enormous natural resources – especially coal, copper, gold and rare earths. A massive investment is planned in infrastructure, particularly in the capital.  Several road and bridge construction projects are planned. The German Machinery and Plant Manufacturers’ Association, the 1331 VDMA, is acting in a role as a conceptual sponsor for the Future Mongolia event, which is expected to be larger than the previous exhibition. The first Future Mongolia show held in May 2012 was attended by some 100 exhibitors from 14 nations.
