Measurand invited to inaugural Canada Turkey Infrastructure & Energy Forum

Measurand is proud to have been invited to the first Canada Turkey Infrastructure & Energy Forum (CTIEF) in Istanbul, Oct. 16–17, 2018. Organized and hosted by the Consulate General of Canada in Istanbul with help from Export Development Canada (EDC), CTIEF aims to explore Canadian-Turkish partnerships in future projects in the global market.

As we continue to grow, we are always looking for new areas to expand into. We have had some success in Turkey, however, there is still a lot more opportunity,” Erika May, Measurand’s Senior Marketing Manager said. “It’s exciting for us. Not only because it is an invitation-only event but to have the Canadian government support our initiative and business.”

During the program, Turkish and Canadian infrastructure companies will discuss capabilities and competitive advantages and meet directly with potential partners.
