 An official delegation led by the Azerbaijan Minister of Economic Development, H.E. Shahin Mustafayev, visited Abu Dhabi National Exhibitions Company (Adnec) earlier this week, following the Minister`s participation in the UAE-Azerbaijan joint committee meeting held in Abu Dhabi, according to www.aiminfo.com.

Expressing his keen interest in ongoing developments at Adnec, the Minister praised the role of the company in building the stature of Abu Dhabi, and the UAE, as a global destination for events.
“I am very impressed with the world class venue that I have seen today. It is obvious that Abu Dhabi has the infrastructure and capabilities to organize all manner of events. I look forward to being back in January 2010 to attend the third World Future Energy Summit at this very same venue,” said Mustafayev, thanking members of the Adnec team for the warm welcome accorded to him and the other members of his delegation.

Later, Bin Harmal presented a commemorative memento to the Minister, on behalf of Sheikh Sultan Bin Tahnoon Al Nahyan, Chairman of Adnec.
