Again this year EXPO REAL has recorded strong growth. The 11th International Commercial Property Exposition, which took place in Munich from 6 to 8 October 2008, attracted 24,500 trade visitors from 77 countries (2007: 23,800 from 77 countries). In addition, at the exhibition stands, there were over 17,500 company representatives. The figure for participation in EXPO REAL 2008 was thus 42,000 (2007: 39,000) – a rise over last year of 7.7 percent.

"These figures show that even and especially in a time of uncertain financial markets the sector needs a forum in which it can analyse the situation and develop perspectives for the future. That is why it is supporting the biggest commercial property fair in Europe, EXPO REAL," said Eugen Egetenmeir, a member of the management board of Messe München. "At this year´s EXPO REAL we are seeing a continuation of the positive effects of recent years. This trade fair is a platform for both generating new business and consolidating existing customer relations," said Ulf Buhlemann, Managing Director / Head of Valuation, CB Richard Ellis, Germany.
