At our event, the visitors will survey 25ha of exhibition complex with pavilions of different countries. We will have to provide them with all required services and meet their expectations,” Urazakov explained.

Those SMEs willing to join this program may apply to Astana EXPO 2017 NC and a special commission will take a decision on their participation.

He reminded that the organizers expect up 55,000 visitors per day and 100,000 visitors at the weekends and during holidays.
