With over two decades of unparalleled presence as the country’s leading exhibitions and events’ organizer, there appears to be nothing that could stop Worldbex Services International (WSI) from continuously breaking new grounds in pursuit of excellence. Last year, WSI made history as it hosted the first-ever Philippine Building and Construction Exposition Davao or Philbex Davao 2014, which bannered the theme of “Connecting the World through Resilient Construction,” in support of raising awareness on the importance of resilient construction as well as the need to gear up for a more globally competitive economic landscape. Gathering the region’s top companies and foreign companies alike, resulting in over 130 exhibitors and 240 booths, the Davao construction industry witnessed a first-of-its-kind high-grade exposition — thus attracting beyond 10,000 visitors in the span of the four-day trade show. Patterned after WSI’s iconic Worldbex, which is hailed as the largest and most comprehensive building and construction exposition in the entire country and Philbex Cebu, Philbex Davao aspires to bridge the glaring gap in the region’s construction industry and serve as a platform to showcase the world-class potential of Davao. As such, WSI envisions to expand the industry’s economic landscape and ultimately, to forge relationships and build meaningful partnerships within its various sectors to foster a unified and emboldened industry. The end goal, of course, is to catapult the Philippine economy by strengthening various industries of the nation. Occupying a total of 4,480sqm of exhibition space, the exposition was an actualization of its vision as it presented a truly world-class trade show as evidenced by its extensive range of product presentations.
