Under the patronage of his highness the Amir of Kuwait, KIU organized Kuwait Industries Expo 2014 with the participation of 150 local factories and other gulf industrial companies. The exhibition was considered an exceptional event especially since industrial establishments, crafts, government agencies and national employment opportunities were all joined under one roof. The exhibition was divided into segments according to the International Standard Industrial Classification (ISIC) and included a folkloric dance show made from recycled steel.
The objective of KIU Expo is in line with the union’s efforts to spread awareness of the role of the industrial sector and its importance in promoting the national economy, in addition to its consistency with the objectives related to encouraging small and medium-sized industrial enterprises to engage them in the industrial field, and finding channels for communication between local factories, Gulf and international markets.
