The UK Group at the Iran Oil Show, Tehran, 20-23 April 2006

Bigger and Better than ever before, and looking forward to 2007!
(Iran Oil Show 26-29 April, 2007)

The Energy Industries Council (EIC) in April of this year organised a UK Group to the largest edition of the Iran OiI Show yet - a record level of exhibitors totalling 497 foreign and 750 local companies attended, a 15% increase from last year's show. 64,000 square metres of floor space was dedicated to the exhibition, making the show the biggest of its kind in the Middle East.

During perhaps one of Iran's more difficult political climates the EIC together with the British Embassy in Tehran assisted companies furthering their business interests in the country. Advice and support was offered months before the show and in-country during the show. UK Group exhibitors benefited onsite from a fantastic location within Hall 44, publicity via the published "Guide to the UK Group" (kindly sponsored by UK Trade & Investment), market intelligence and contacts, and an official UK Group reception held at the Ambassador's residence. The EIC had a stand within the Group and was on hand throughout.

The result was a very positive response from the UK Group exhibitors on the worth of both the show and the UK Group concept.

"An excellent show - Good quality of people attending with alot of technical and/or commercial interest. Having the organisation carried out and arranged by the EIC was very useful and necessary for our ease of participation." Roger Spiers/Maurice Critchley, Severn Glocon

"As usual very well attended by local industry. A good number of valuable potential leads achieved and great potential for the future. In my opinion one of the best shows industry wise in the region." Michael Bovey, Multivalve Technology Limited.

"The quality of visitors and level of interest was greatly improved from the previous year. We believe that business will be generated as a direct result of contacts made at the 2006 Oil and Gas Show in Tehran." Martin Beddows, Hamworthy Combustion.

The EIC will build on this success again next year. The dates for the show have been set at 26th - 29th April 2007. Please contact the overseas events team for further information on the both the show itself and how we can help you do business in Iran.
