 Dear Guests and Participants,

On behalf of the Turkish Embassy in Astana, I welcome you to KazBuild & AquaTherm Almaty 2013.

Following its independence, Kazakhstan has successfully established itself as one of the most progressive open market economies in Eurasia. Kazakhstan's visionary economic reforms supported by political stability have led to consistent growth in many sectors of the country's national economy including construction and construction materials.

Despite the challenges and undesirable consequences of the global economic downturn of the previous decade, today we witness an ever increasing upward trend in Kazakhstan's construction and construction materials sectors, which points to enhanced resilience and outlook.

The scope and magnitude of KazBuild is the most significant indicator of this positive trend. While KazBuild hosted some 250 companies from countries in 2012, this year the number of participants almost doubled to an impressive 315 companies from all around the world.

In this vein, I am particularly happy to see increasing participation fro Turkey. Turkish construction companies and construction materials manufacturers play an important role in Kazakhstan's residential, commercial and transportation infrastructure. Moreover, through direct investment and know-how transfer they also contribute to the development of the country's construction materials industry, which is of strategic importance in Kazakhstan's economic diversification
agenda.

Finally, I would like to add that the international exhibitions constitute the most efficient venues for presenting the latest innovations to a wide spectrum of audiences as well as for the establishment of business contacts between investors.

I am sure that the experts will у given the chance to receive information on new tendencies in the construction sector through KazBuild & AquaTherm Almaty exhibitions and thereby they will be able to contribute more to the development of Kazakhstan's contraction industry.
Within this context, I wish success and fruitful partnership to all the participants.

Yours sincerely,

Omer Burhan Tuzel
Ambassador of the Republic of Turkey to the Republic of Kazakhstan


The welcome speech of the Union of Architects of the Republic of Kazakhstan for KazBuild exhibition

On behalf of the Union of Architects of the Republic of Kazakhstan we welcome the participants of the 20th Anniversary Kazakhstan International Construction exhibition KazBuild 2013!

The construction industry has always been and remains the most important sector of employment. This industry, which most acutely experienced the impact of the crisis, is gradually returns to its previous positions.

During its existence the KazBuild exhibition has won the position of the one of the biggest shows of the construction industry achievements, which demonstrates the best examples of construction equipment, new construction materials, advanced and innovative technologies in the field of construction and architecture, the most successful projects of integrated development.

The exposition and exhibition business program have combined the basic issues of the construction industry of the Republic, among them are innovative proposals in construction, energy-efficient construction, advanced technologies, materials and products, management and marketing in the construction, issues on development of modern city and their discussion at conferences and round tables allow finding the best options for their solution.

Issues related to construction industry and architecture are relevant and meaningful right now. They help architects and builders to have a constructive dialogue with each other, to strengthen the inter-industry relations, to exchange their opinions and experience and establish mechanisms of public-private partnership. Besides, the KazBuild is a wonderful platform for communication of professionals.

The measures, which have been taken by the state to support the construction industry during the difficult period, are unrivalled. The main emphasis was placed on maximum support of private initiative, on the establishment of a competitive construction business. But the development of the industry cannot be based only on cheap labor, available natural resources. We need the advantages of a higher order, new materials, new technologies, new business organization and new specialists.

We hope that guests and participants of the exhibition will see new progressive construction technologies and interesting architectural projects.

We wish all participants successful work, interesting tasks and fruitful discussions.

of the Republic of Kazakhstan

The KazBuild Exhibition is extremely important not only for showing our achievements and new opportunities in sphere of creating the urban environment but also for making conditions to change surrounding space in the direction favorable for people. For last years there had been lots of new styles and materials created in architecture, design as well as a new language formed in sphere of urban design. By understanding a present-day interpreting, the urban space must have the opportunity to be improved, maximally considering the context of environment and harmonic contact with the nature.

KazBuild Exhibition is a laboratory exhibition at which builders, architects, designers and a wide circle of community may introduce with new innovation technologies and materials which will be further used in their projects.

Participation of representatives from various countries makes KazBuild Exhibition a really interesting and all-program one.
