Istanbul Expo Centre, 28th-31st August, 2014



Following the successful NO-DIG TURKEY 2013 Conference and Exhibition, we are pleased to announce the NO-DIG TURKEY 2014 Conference and Exhibition, to be held at the Istanbul Expo Center, Turkey, 28th-31st August 2014.

NO-DIG TURKEY 2014 will showcase international machinery, products and methods which are available to aid the installation and refurbishment of underground utilities and pipelines without disruption to the surface.Turkey is a place of excellence for trenchless technology, established through the major microtunnelling projects undertaken around the country. Over the past 10 years, the Turkish economy has shown remarkable performance with its steady growth. The investment environment in Turkey is becoming increasingly attractive for both local and foreign investors, and a positive growth rate in construction is expected in the years ahead. With a vast experience in international collaborations across 96 countries, Turkish contractors are open to building and enhancing international partnerships not only in the field of contracting, but also in construction industry investments, ranging from the manufacture of construction materials to infrastructure, housing, industrial plants and tourism projects. The extensive know-how and experience gained through working abroad for nearly four decades, in all kinds of challenging engineering projects and in all forms of business environments is among the distinctive strengths of the Turkish contractors.

The Turkish government’s ambitious vision for 2023, the centennial foundation of the Republic, envisages grandiose targets for infrastructure. The overall target is to make Turkey one of the top 10 economies in the world, which will naturally require

immense investments in infrastructure, in areas such as building new ports, bridges, airports, roads, railways, high-speed railways, hospitals, etc. The use of trenchless technology will therefore be in demand more than ever before.
