فهرست مطالب
Exhibition News – The 25th International Construction Industry Exhibition, which coincides with the country’s economic transition from post-war conditions, has become more than just an ordinary event, becoming a symbol of economic dynamism and capacity . The event, which will host more than 500 domestic and foreign companies from August 17 to 20 at the Permanent Exhibition Center in Tehran, serves as a business catalyst and policy-making platform for the entire industry.
Part One: Analysis of Exhibition Content and Specialized Booth Building Requirements
The wide range of sectors at the show—from heavy machinery to consulting software—requires a differentiated, specialized approach to booth design . Each sector requires its own visual language and physical space:
| Exhibition section | Key features of booth construction | Suggested materials and technology |
|---|---|---|
| Heavy machinery | Open space, practical demonstration, high safety | Durable industrial flooring, high-powered lighting , elevated platforms for better visibility |
| New and prefabricated materials | Focus on the tactile and touchability of samples | Modular frames, precise lighting (Lighting Spotlight) to show texture |
| Building facilities and smart building | Creating an interactive and simulated space | Touch screens, active models, augmented reality to display energy flow |
| Interior decoration and architecture | Instilling a sense of living space and luxury | Use of natural materials (wood, stone), warm and indirect lighting, space-oriented layout |
Part Two: New Approaches in Event Design and Booth Construction
1. Narrative Booth Design:
Every booth should tell the story of its brand—from innovation to execution. For example, the visitor’s journey from raw structure to finished product can be an engaging and educational journey.
2. Business Networking Zones :
Given the presence of high-ranking officials and decision-makers, it is a necessity to create private and semi-private meeting rooms within large pavilions. These spaces should be equipped with high-speed internet, presentation systems, and small catering facilities.
3. Integrated digital-physical platform:
Using smart QR codes to access digital catalogs, virtual reality headsets to showcase large projects, and appointment booking apps can transform the viewing experience.
Part Three: Key Statements and Implications for the Exhibition Industry
Statement by the Minister of Roads and Urban Development: The emphasis on “high economic capacity” reflects the exhibition’s new orientation towards attracting investment and unveiling mega-projects . This requires the pavilions to focus more on the economic and financial aspects of the projects .
Statement from the CEO of International Exhibitions: The reference to “post-war conditions” and “the presence of knowledge-based companies” indicates that the exhibition should be a showcase of domestic resilience and innovation . The booths should be able to effectively convey the message of “self-sufficiency” and “indigenous technology.”
Conclusion: The exhibition as a mega-development project
The 25th Construction Industry Exhibition is not just a trade event ; it is a symbolic construction project itself that showcases the efficiency, aesthetics, and innovation of the industry. Its success depends on designing booths that can:
Convey trust and scale to domestic and foreign investors.
Provide visitors with sensory interaction with products.
Act as a platform for concluding large contracts .
A final note for exhibitors:
In today’s environment, your booth is not just a display space, but your temporary office for big deals . Its design should be planned based on pure business functionality and return on investment ( ROI ) .
