MIPIM Asia 2006: Close up on Architecture

Paris, 7 September 2006 – Architects from around the world will converge on Hong Kong this month to attend the first edition of MIPIM Asia, the international Asia Pacific property market, which takes place September 27-29 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.

MIPIM Asia, which will bring together leading companies involved in the international real estate business, is proving particularly popular with architecture specialists. To date, some 50 architecture practices from 19 countries will be attending the three-day event.

Three weeks before its opening, MIPIM Asia already registered some 1,500 real estate professionals and 228 exhibiting companies from 42 countries.

“The dynamism of the Asia Pacific real estate business is generating some truly extraordinary projects which provide exciting opportunities for architects around the world,” says Gilles Saint Georges Chaumet, Director of MIPIM Asia. “By bringing together the key players from Asia Pacific with their international counterparts, including architects, we hope MIPIM Asia will contribute to fuelling this dynamism”.
