Buildsoft was a recent exhibitor in the largest construction expo in Saudi Arabia, the Big 5 International Building & Construction Show at the World Trade Centre in Dubai from 25th to 28th November 2013. Our participation in the Australian Pavilion was organised by the Master Builders, Australia as part of their Trade Mission program. It was the most successful show to date with 2,742 exhibitors from 57 countries and 74,474 participants attending. Particular interest was shown in the new Buildsoft Takeoff software, which is gaining worldwide attention, and several large orders were negotiated. Stand by for news about new Buildsoft distributors in the Middle East region. In attendance on the Buildsoft stand J13 in Zabeel Hall were Australian Sales Manager Haydon Carroll and the Managing Director of Building Software Services from Ireland, Pat McCarthy. They were kept very busy during the expo giving demonstrations of the whole range of Buildsoft takeoff and estimating software. Buildsoft already has a number of companies in the region who use our software and we were pleased to increase that user base.
