U.S. Companies interested in developing new business contacts at a national trade event in Chile should consider participating at EXPO REBUILD CHILE INTERNATIONAL. This event will be held October 12-14 at the SurActivo Espacio Ferial de Eventos in Concepcion, Chile. The expc is a follow-on to a previously certified trade event Rebuild Chile Expo 2010, held in Santiago, Chile, June 15-17, 2010. EXPO REBUILD CHILE INTERNATIONAL responds to Chile’s need for immediate, medium and long term rebuilding in the wake of the massive earthquake in February 2010.

In addition to the three day trade show, EXPO REBUILD CHILE INTERNATIONAL will feature presentations from representatives from the Chilean Ministries of Reconstruction, Public Works, Housing, Energy, Finance and Health.
