(OPENPRESS) March 9, 2011 -- The ceremonial inauguration of "Expo - Russia Jordan" was held on the 7th of March at the Royal Convention Centre at Le Méridien Amman, the largest convention center in town. The exhibition which will continue until the 9th of March has been organized by "Zarubezh Expo", Jordan Chamber of Commerce and the International Association of Peace Foundation.
This exhibition has gained over the past ten years a well-deserved reputation of Russia's most important event in the Middle East, and will offer this year various sectors of industry such as power, mechanical engineering, chemistry, geology, agriculture, transportation, construction, oil, gas, timber, innovations and investments.
The General Manager; Giuseppe Ressa, welcomed the visitors by saying: "We are privileged to host the Expo Russia - Jordan at our hotel. This exhibition constitutes a golden opportunity for Jordanian merchants to establish fruitful business relations with their Russians counterparts. The organizing committee's decision to hold this international exhibition at the Royal Convention Centre is a clear indication of our ability and experience over the past years to provide excellent services, designed for international exhibitions of the highest scale."
It is worthy of mentioning that the Grand Ballroom has been recently re-launched after a period of six months spent in its renovation. The 400 square meter Victorian- style ballroom, which is now easily accessed with the semi-completion of Abdali bridge in Shemisani, is decorated with mahogany wooden walls, gold-plated wall-mounted lighting, crystal chandeliers, hand-tufted royal blue carpets, and is the perfect venue for weddings and conferences seating up to 200 guests.
