YEREVAN, October 7. /ARKA/. Some 120 local and overseas companies will
participate in ARMENIA EXPO 2008 eighth annual regional industrial
forum in Yerevan on October 14-17.

Industrial and commercial companies from Armenia, Russia, Ukraine,
Belarus, Syria, Iran, Lebanon, Poland, France, China and Germany will
participate in the workshop, reported Ara Stepanyan, director of the
LOGOS Expo Center.

The venue for the forum is Yerevan’s Dinamo Stadium. The organizer
of the event is the LOGOS EXPO center.

"More organizations could enroll in the event if there were enough
space for everyone," Stepanyan said, adding the stadium can roof
about 160 organizations.

This year Karen Demirtchyan Sport and Concert Complex refused to host
the expo. "You should ask the management of the complex why it has
turned down our proposal," Stepanyan was quoted saying.

Previous expos helped about 15 foreign companies to find partners in
Armenia and start their business in the country.

The mission of the forum is to search new markets and partners, as
well as to attract foreign investments by showing Armenia’s economy
to the best advantage. ARMENIA EXPO 2008 includes six exhibitions on
Armenia’s industry, construction, food industry, transport, computers,
printing, publishing and advertising.

Established in 1999, the LOGOS EXPO Ce nter is a leader in organizing
sectoral, industrial, national and international exhibitions and
congresses.

The center annually organizes 10-12 expos in Armenia and abroad. Around
1,000 local and overseas organizations and companies enroll in the
exhibitions.
