The event is expected to provide vast business opportunities for private operators and public sectors around the world in greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions as the carbon market potential will continue to grow exponentially in Asia with its economic growth, said Andrei Marcu, IETA president and chief executive officer, Saturday at a press conference in Singapore.
Some 120 exhibitors from 25 countries and more than 1,200 participants from 50 countries are expected to attend the event in Singapore, said Michael Dreyer, Koelnmesse's vice president Asia Pacific. The expo 2006 in Beijing saw 108 exhibitors from 20 countries and 1,062 participants from 44 countries.
