s the year comes to an end, we once again bring you a collection of great international events for your consideration.
At Exhibition Affairs, we believe that visiting highly beneficial events can come with unimaginable tremendous opportunities. Falling oil prices, climate change, economic effects of worldwide migration out of many others are some of the several issues faced by major world economies this year. These highlighted decisive challenges will be paramount in major economic policies and decisions for countries and major industries alike in the forth coming year. For the past decade, the ground has been continuously shifting. The year ahead brings a possibly more challenging period. With emerging markets currencies hemorrhaging, Chinese growth slowing and oil prices at record lows, the task for the major countries and multinationals is to challenge themselves in finding new opportunities for growth and connect with diverse markets that offer strong long-term value propositions for countries and their industry's growth proposition. The world is facing a major challenge to meet future energy supplies. With global energy demand projected to rise up to 55% by 2030, fossil fuels will continue to hold a dominant share of the world's energy mix. The demand for coal could rise by 70% in absolute terms by 2030. The latest technologies for the coal will help to meet the challenges of our energy future. Conventional energy sources are normally associated with undesirable effluents that if not managed well, can have detrimental impact on our planet earth including global climate change. Therefore, environmental compliance plans should always be an integral part of any national development plan. The ultimate objective of energy management systems is to ensure the availability of the needed energy sources for fueling the present without compromising the ability of the future generation to meet their energy needs. This noble objective must be fulfilled with minimum impact on the environment.
during production at all levels will play a very critical role this coming year. We looked at efficient management events in the agriculture, IT & hospitality industries as well. You will also find over 100 valuable international events for the months of NOV / DEC 2015 from various industries. Please note that the FEATURED EVENTS are only a handful of events that has been specially recommended for you in every edition. There are still over 100 other events available for you to be part of. At EXHIBITION AFFAIRS, we provide you with basic information on highly valuable international events (exhibitions, conferences and workshops) that will have a long lasting impact on investments and decision making for personal businesses, organisations of all kinds and government institution as well. These events were carefully and randomly selected either for their previous successes and impacts which is made evident through several testimonies or the expected impact envisaged and highlighted by previous visitors and organizers alike. We hope to make a positive and long lasting impact on your personal lives and businesses as you find one or more interesting and valuable events to visit during the months of NOV / DEC 2015.

2ND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON CROP IMPROVEMENT 2015, SERDANG, SELANGOR, MALAYSIA, ENERGY MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE AND EXHIBITION, MANAMA, BAHRAIN, 06 - 08 DEC 2015
CONFERENCE INFO: nergy management is a vital area to investigate, which requires special attention due to the evolving field. The topic of energy management may be summed up in the planning and operation of energy-related production and consumption units. The main purpose for studying energy management is to conserve resources, protect the climate and reduce costs. By fulfilling these purposes, the consumers of energy will ultimately have permanent access to the required energy. Energy security is a core element in any national development plan and energy management is the vehicle for attaining and ensuring the long-term sustainable supply of energy to fuel the national prosperity.
