    The Expo 2020 and future of Dubai’s Real estate market

    20th October 2020, that is the date everyone is looking forward to. But before we discuss what to expect, let us first understand, what is an Expo?

    An Expo is a destination for people all across the globe to share their ideas, showcase innovation and celebrate human excellence. They are held every 5 years and usually last for a period of 6 months. The first World Expo was held at London’s Crystal palace in the year 1851 where about 10000 invention from the industrial revolution were displayed. We have been introduced to some of the most amazing inventions at these Expos like the telegraph, the typewriter, the diesel engine, colour TV and many more. At the most recent Expo held in Milan in 2015 we were amazed by the solar tress and energy saving elevators.

    The Location of Expos 2020 in Dubai is known as Dubai South, an area close to the Al Maktoum International airport. The theme of the Expo is “Connecting Minds, Connecting Future”.

    So, what do we have to look forward to?

    Here are some of the possible impacts of The Expo:
