ERF (2866 European Union Road Federation) president Jacobo Díaz has urged leading transport industry companies and figures to participate in the 17th IRF World Meeting in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Organised every four years, the global transport event from 9-13 November 2013 is a superb opportunity for transport sector stakeholders to gather and share knowledge, exchange good practices and return home with a new set of ideas on how to make our roads safer and more sustainable.

Díaz said, “With over 115 sessions organised across 11 themes and with a projected participation of approximately 2000 delegates from 80 countries, the 17th IRF World Meeting can beyond any doubt be described as the premium event for transportation professionals in 2013.

“Apart from its fascinating programme, participation at the IRF World Meeting will also allow you to take advantage of the enormous business opportunities in the region. With an expected investment of US$100 billion in infrastructure over the next few years, Saudi Arabia is experiencing a construction boom comparable to what happened in the United States and Europe in the 1960’s and 70’s.”

Díaz said he was confident that attendees at the 17th IRF World Meeting will enjoy an experience that will prove to be “both enriching and profitable”.
