This year’s BYH Exhibition continues to fuel the growth of the real estate sector and strives to exceed the QR400mn worth of deals signed during the previous two editions of the exhibition,” Sleem said.According to Sleem, major ministries, local stakeholders and dignitaries are expected to attend the ceremony and ribbon-cutting of BYH 2022, which will be inaugurated by HE the Minister of Commerce and Industry Sheikh Mohamed bin Hamad bin Qassim al-Thani.Mohamed Ali al-Mohannadi, Public Relations and Communication manager at Qatar General Electricity and Water Corporation (Kahramaa) said: “Build Your House Exhibition is one of the most important events supporting the national economy by creating a common space for various entities working in the field of building and construction uniting the efforts of government and private companies to serve the Qatari community.”He added: “Kahramaa's participation in this year’s edition as Sustainability Partner is a prolongation of our fruitful engagement in the previous editions and a form of our constant support. Our slogan this year is ‘Secure Your House’. “A team of experts and engineers from the Kahramaa will present modern ways to secure and protect the house by avoiding short circuits across all internal and external electrical installations. The team in the booth will also provide advice on inspecting the water installations to avoid any damages that might happen because of water leakage in the house.” BYH Exhibition is considered as a crucial link between companies in residential design and building industry and Qatari citizens who wish to build or modernise their homes. Guests can visit over 150 exhibitors from five main sectors: consultants, contractors, suppliers, general services, and smart solutions.
