WETEX at a glance

Utility and government officials, engineers, project developers, consultants and contractors, facility managers, investors and technology buyers from the UAE, the GCC and beyond. Entry is free, so footfall is high.

Stand design tips for WETEX

• Make it about results. Show energy or water saved, and project numbers, rather than product lists.

• Plan for big footfall. Free entry brings large crowds; open stand fronts and a separate meeting area keep business talks possible.

• Use sustainable build. Reusable modules and low-waste materials fit the show’s theme and are noticed by visitors.

• Demo smart systems live. Dashboards, meters and controls are easier to understand on screen than on a poster.

Planning timeline

• 10–12 weeks before: confirm space and brief, start design

• 6–8 weeks before: final design, submit drawings and service orders

• 3–4 weeks before: fabrication and graphics

• Build-up days: on-site installation and handover before opening; dismantling after the show closes
