Getting hot in Moscow!
Global warming certainly seemed to have arrived sooner than
expected in Moscow as temperatures rose for wire Russia,
reaching 38˚C!
But the show, between 28th and 31st May 2007, was also hot in
other ways – with the many exhibitors experiencing busy periods
throughout the four-day show.
Preliminary data provided by the organisers, Messe Düsseldorf,
estimate the total number of visitors at wire Russia and Tube
Russia 2007 at 13,500 – an increase of more than 12% from 2005.
Whilst the overall number of exhibitors at wire Russia 2007
was similar to 2005 it is interesting to note that there has been
a reduction in the quantity of Russian ones but an increase in
international exhibitors of nearly 4%, with organisations from
29 countries, including national groups from Austria, France,
Germany, Italy, UK, USA and Spain.
The reduction in local exhibitors is probably largely due to
the consolidation that has been taking place in the Russian
industry.
Exhibition space sold showed an increase of 3.5% against the
comparable 2005 event.

Europe has made Russia one of their key markets, and an object
