Istanbul to host 23rd “World Energy Congress” in October



Istanbul, (IINA) - Under the auspices of President of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Istanbul will host the 23rd World Energy Congress (WEC) from October 9 to 13.
According to a statement obtained by the International Islamic News Agency (IINA), the Congress will be the fourth major global event to be hosted by Turkey since the past year, following the G20 Summit, the 13th Islamic Summit Conference and the UN World Humanitarian Summit.
This event will be unique as it brings together senior industry leaders, government ministers, and other highly influential actors. The 23rd WEC will host some 250 speakers including more than 50 ministers of various countries, CEOs and experts. Sessions will be held in Istanbul’s Congress Valley along with an exhibition and side events converging on the theme of this year’s congress, “Embracing New Frontiers”.
In addition to the debates at the Congress, executives have a chance to showcase their technologies and explore business opportunities at the parallel exhibition.
Since the first event in 1924, the triennial WEC has been a main platform where the world’s top leaders and thinkers in the energy industry have discussed major energy issues.
