Construction and design experts stress on having the right attitude towards challenges of sustainability and convert them into opportunities. “We need to start discussing on the bigger picture of the true economic cost of ‘non-sustainable’ design as compared to ‘sustainable’ design rather than discussing about some initial financial cost implications in a typical project” says Holley Chant, Executive Director – Sustainability at KEO International Consultants. Holley Chant is one of the many experts who will be addressing a delegation of more than 100 construction, design, and fit-out professionals at the upcoming 5th Annual Concepts Middle East in Doha. Taking place on May 28th and 29th, the summit will begin with an introductory panel discussion presided by Holley Chant and three other experts presenting their individual viewpoints on how Qatar’s mega projects are balancing the Middle Eastern and global standards while working towards realizing the Qatar National Vision 2030.

The two day initiative is organised and hosted by French business information group naseba. It allows participants to present their new products and services and meet potential buyers during business networking sessions.
