» According to experts, by 2020 the Russian
consumer market may become the largest
in Europe and the fourth largest in the
world.
(Les Echos newspaper, France)
» Over the past 10 years, 80% of economic
growth in Russia has been a contribution of
consumption and not oil and gas income.
The middle class constitutes 55% of the
population. That is a bigger percentage
than in China or India. Russians are
becoming more confident in their future:
44% expect to become wealthier, 42% are
going to buy a new car soon, and 50% are
going to move into a new flat.
(Andy Smith, Head of Equity Research, Managing Director
of Sberbank Investment Research)
» According to the research carried out
by Sberbank, household consumption
accounts for two-thirds of Russia’s GDP.
By 2025 the consumer market size is
expected to double, growing up to 3 billion
US dollars, which will make it the largest
one in Europe and the fourth largest in the
world. It means growth of such sectors as
e-commerce, tourism, and advertising.
Under these conditions it is easy to
forecast a rapid growth in the trade show
business and event industry as well as their
efficiency growth.
MARKET ANALYSIS
Russian Federation
The Russian market still remains one of the most attractive
markets in the world for investing, promoting goods, services,
technologies despite the impact of the global financial and
economic crisis and current political issues.
In global trade, the Russian Federation, a new WTO member,
remains one of the most attractive markets of the world. Russian
consumers improve their well-being year by year, seeking to
purchase the best, modern, and advanced goods and services.
Leading financial centres around the world actively invest into
the Russian economy. More than half of the largest globe investors plan to expand their activities in the country.
The formation of the common economic space together with
the Republic of Belarus and the Republic of Kazakhstan and
the establishment of the Eurasian Economic Union increase
attractiveness of the “Russian direction” in terms of financial
flows, and movement of goods and services to the giant Eurasian market.

EXPOCENTRE IS A PARTNER
OF THE MOSCOW CITY
GOVERNMENT
The Moscow City Government considers the exhibition and
congress activities a priority for the development of the capital.
The President of Russia proclaimed an ambitious goal that is
to transform the capital into the world’s largest financial center.
The goal implies extensive and diverse congress and exhibition
activity that is tightly associated with Expocentre.
For the Russian capital city Expocentre at Krasnaya Presnya is
one of the largest investors and taxpayers. The results of the
14 | EXPOCENTRE: YOUR STRATEGIC PARTNER
partnership between city authorities and Expocentre have been
appreciated and evaluated by the residents and guests of the
city: transportation infrastructure is developed (a good example
is the construction of Vystavochnaya and Delovoy Tsentr metro
stations), business activity is growing (case in point: the new
ultra-modern international complex Moscow-City was constructed near Expocentre), hotel services are improved.
Expocentre, with a half-century experience
in organization and holding the largest
international trade shows and congresses,
as “an elder brother” is ready to provide
assistance to colleagues in the Russian
regions and the former Soviet Republics in
design, constuction and operation of exhibition
complexes, consulting them on certification
matters as well as holding educational and
training workshops for personnel and exhibitors
if the necessity arises.

REGIONS:
PRACTICE OF INTERACTION
Today, only 45% of the Russian regions have specialized exhibition areas, though not all of them meet the modern standards
and international specifications.
Over the past seven years, the number of regional exhibition
centres has doubled, but they are still not enough, and the
available exhibition venues in the regions do not meet the
needs of domestic and foreign companies.
In total, there are 38 exhibition venues in Russia with an indoor
exhibition area amounting to approximately 800,000 sq m.
16 | EXPOCENTRE: YOUR STRATEGIC PARTNER
For comparison: in Germany, for the purpose of holding specialized trade shows, 22 venues with total area of 2.75 million
sq m are used. In Italy, the total area used by the exhibition
centres amounts to more than 2 million sq m and in China –
more than 6 million sq m.
The prospects for the economic development of Russian regions
are closely connected with the need to construct specialized and
modern exhibition and convention venues. Russia’s entry into
the WTO will obviously promote the integration of Russian fairgrounds into the existing global exhibition and congress system.
Cooperation of Expocentre, the Committee on Exhibition and
Fair Activity Supporting Producers and Exporters of the Russian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, and the Russian
Union of Exhibitions and Fairs has provided necessary conditions for an ‘exhibition breakthrough’ in the regions. With the
participation of Expocentre for the past 5 years, there have
been put into operation such exhibition centres as Belexpocenter (the Belgorod region), Mordovexpocenter (the Republic of Mordovia) and exhibition complexes in the Republic of
Komi, in the Kirov and Irkutsk regions.
Expocentre, being the leading Russian exhibition company
and the founder of the Russian exhibition business, actively
and effectively shares its experience and know-how with their
colleagues in the Russian regions.
With participation of Expocentre there was prepared and submitted to public authorities a draft of the Concept of formation
of exhibition, fair and congress infrastructure in the subjects of
the Russian Federation based on principles of public and private partnership. The Concept was approved by the Russian
Government. Many of the Concept items are implemented by
Expocentre in its daily activities.

55
YEARS OF OUR
COMMON HISTORY
Expocentre’s 55th anniversary is an important milestone not
only for our company but for the entire convention and exhibition industry.
In 1959 Expocentre (back then it was the Exhibition Department
of the All-Union Chamber of Commerce) started its activities in
Sokolniki Park in Moscow.
Twenty-four foreign exhibitions in different cities of the USSR such
as Moscow, Tashkent, Alma-Ata, Kiev, Leningrad, Riga and other cities; soviet national exhibitions in Colombo, Helsinki and
Mexico City; colorful Soviet stands at international fairs, and
trade shows in 14 different countries. Such were the achievements of the newly created Department of the All-Union Chamber of Commerce in 1959. That year was a turning-point for
establishing exhibition business in our country.

EXPOCENTRE: YOUR STRATEGIC PARTNER
But the most exciting events of the year were the Soviet Exhibition of Science, Technology and Culture held in the New York
Coliseum and the American National Exhibit held in Sokolniki
Park.
The Soviet Exhibition of Science, Technology and Culture
lasted 40 days and it was attended by more than one million
Americans.
For the American National Exhibit in Sokolniki Park, there was
constructed a special exhibition town which included among
others a single storey living house of a ‘typical American’, where
famous ‘kitchen debate’ between Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev and Vice President of the USA Richard Nixon took place.
There were a lot of memorable events in the subsequent history of Expocentre. Among them, the first in our country international trade show Stroidormash (1964) and the Khimia Exhibition (1965) that impressed the whole world. Construction of
a modern exhibition complex on the bank of the Moskva River
(1970–2000s) was a product of unique (at the time) international cooperation; organization of national expositions at the
World exhibitions and other major foreign shows…
Today, there are over 270 companies in the Russian market of
exhibition and convention services. But Expocentre still retains
its position as one of the leading exhibition companies in Europe.
This anniversary year Expocentre as usual invites you to plunge
into the festive atmosphere of exhibitions at Krasnaya Presnya,
take part in business events, each of them is bound to leave its
unique mark in history.
Much in the history of Expocentre was accompanied by the
words ‘for the first time’. Expocentre was the first to pave the
way for the national exhibition industry to the international exhibition community, having become a full member of the Global
Association of the Exhibition Industry (UFI) in 1975. It was also
one of the initiators and founders of the Russian Union of Exhibitions and Fairs in 1991.
