Abdullah Sultan Al Owais said, "We have witnessed a qualitative surge in the global engagement in SteelFab, providing strong momentum for the iron and steel industry -- a pillar of the industrial renaissance sweeping the UAE. This is owing to government support for the sector, which forms the backbone for numerous manufacturing sectors and infrastructure projects. The exhibition serves as an opportunity to exchange expertise and experience, catalyse increased innovation, and leverage the latest technologies and tools of the fourth industrial revolution in the manufacturing field."
For his part, Al Midfa said, "This edition of SteelFab has brought together international and regional leaders in the sector, including heads of global companies hosted in Sharjah for the first time, coming to roll out their latest products and launch them in global markets, as well as share their expertise and experience in expanding production with those operating in the sector. This enhances the exhibition's role among investors looking to capitalise on the programme of events, which familiarises them and other participants with the industry's latest developments and innovations and allows them to engage face-to-face with leading experts, innovators, suppliers, and consumers from global markets, exploring promising future opportunities in the sector."
Over the course of four days, SteelFab 2024 will showcase cutting-edge global products, solutions, and technologies in the iron and steel industry at pavilions hosted by major global companies, catering to factories, companies, entrepreneurs, and industrial ventures.
