CONSTRUCTION IN FOCUS

Your one-stop guide to Middle East construction projects...

ig Project ME launched in 2006 is the region’s leading monthly B2B magazine for the construction industry.

With over 9,000 key construction professionals across the GCC, Big Project ME brings together a network of expert clients, developers, contractors, architects, consultants, local government and suppliers to identify the trends, opportunities and challenges of the construction industry.

Covering the Middle East, North Africa and Asia, the magazine looks at the biggest projects; the people integral to them; the newest markets, technology and construction methods; the latest tenders and the impact of the international business environment.

Every month Big Project ME carries exclusive project profiles, analysis, statistics, interviews and site visits; in addition to the latest tenders, regional and product news; and case studies and commentary from the construction IT sector.

Additionally, a network of expert commentators share their insight on sector-specific developments to ensure readers of Big Project ME are the most clued up on a spectrum of issues that affect day-to-day business — from safety and sustainability to construction law, finance models and engineering methods.

The publication is, today, the voice of the industry and an essential point of reference for those in it.
