The 2nd Global Cement Conference Iran follows on from the hugely successful first event in Tehran in 2006, when around 450 delegates from Iran and from around the world attended the conference and exhibition. The conference addresses the many changes that have taken place in the industry since 2006, with much new capacity in the country now commissioned and producing cement, but against the background of lower subsidies for energy. Iran's highly developed cement industry now has the capacity to produce around 65Mt/year, but this is set to increase to around 90Mt/year by 2013 according to some industry observers. With a predominantly-young population of close to 72 million, and the second largest natural gas and oil reserves in the world, Iran is set for unprecedented economic growth in the next decade.
