\"tubotech_about_the_fair\"<\/p>\n

From October 6 to 8, 2015, the industrial chain for the pipes, valves, pumps, fittings, and components segments gathered at the 8th edition of Tubotech, held at the S\u00e3o Paulo Expo Exhibition & Convention Center. Held simultaneously with the 2nd edition of Wire South America | International Wire and Cable Fair, the events featured over 550 exhibitors across an area of 32,000 square meters.<\/p>\n

Recognized as the most important trade fair in the Americas for the sector and the second in the world in terms of foreign company presence, Tubotech | International Trade Fair for Pipes, Valves, Pumps, Fittings, and Components and Wire South America, the South American version of the world's largest wire and cable trade fair, Wire D\u00fcsseldorf, received a surprising turnout. Over the course of three days, more than 11,000 highly qualified professionals from the automotive, oil and gas, metal construction, food, furniture, mining, paints, and infrastructure sectors, among others, visited the events.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese trade fairs cover the production chain of important economic sectors. We saw effective movement for business generation, market integration, professional updating and improvement. We saw the sector uniting to strengthen itself in a scenario of instability, contrary to the pessimism that prevails in the business sector as a whole. It is necessary to act and be bold to break out of inertia, and the companies that were here worked confidently to generate opportunities and show that the pipe and cable sectors are strong and intelligent, and are prepared to react to the current moment and showcase their full potential. We certainly held an event that surprised everyone by stimulating business and outlining a positive horizon, highlighted Luciano Targiani, executive director of Tarcom Promo\u00e7\u00f5es, promoter of Tubotech, in partnership with Cipa Fiera Milano and<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Rimantas Sipas, commercial director of Cipa Fiera Milano, also noted that the current economic climate has presented new challenges for the event, which has been held since 2003. \u201cThe industry\u2019s performance is tied to the country\u2019s growth and also to its own capacity to invest and innovate. In this context, trade shows play an important role as a platform for generating business and knowledge.\u201d Jos\u00e9 Adolfo Siqueira, executive director of ABITAM, added that it is necessary to resume investments in technology so that the Brazilian industry\u2014which today accounts for 9% of GDP\u2014can return to the 23% level it once reached. \u201cThere is no developed country in the world that does not have a strong industrial sector.\u201d.<\/p>\n

Erhard Wienkamp, Director of Messe D\u00fcsseldorf, promoter of Wire South America, in partnership with Tarcom Promo\u00e7\u00f5es and organized by Cipa Fiera Milano, praised Brazil's potential for the development of industrial activity, adding that holding the second edition of the South American fair\u2014the world's largest specialized event for wire and cable\u2014is a sign of confidence in the Brazilian market.

Discussing current and future conditions
\nFred Carvalho, director of institutional affairs for the National Association of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (Anfavea), emphasized the sector\u2019s importance in creating skilled jobs and developing a local supply chain. \u201cThe automotive industry accounts for 23% of Brazil\u2019s industrial GDP, and the country ranks among the
\n10 largest vehicle sales markets in the world\u201d.
