Speaking about the sale, Fusion’s Paul Slight said, “Nadim (Chaudhry, Founder and President of Green Power Global) is passionate about renewable energy and has witnessed the ongoing transformation of LATAM through these two events over the last few years. We were delighted to find in UBM a like minded group with a developed strategy for renewables in LATAM and an established local presence in Mexico through Jaime Salazar Figueroa. Together Nadim and the UBM team will be best placed to advance these events in Mexico and Argentina and at the same time advance the progression of renewables in LATAM with all the socio and economic benefits that brings to the area.”
MIREC, Mexico’s largest clean energy event, runs annually and is now in its seventh year. Known for connecting international equipment and service solution providers with power generation developers, MIREC is considered the must attend event for wind and solar farm developers, corporate and industrial consumers of electricity, utilities, government and service providers. The 2018 edition of MIREC will take place May 21-25 in Mexico City.
AIREC, Argentina’s leading annual clean energy congress and exhibition is now in its third year. At the forefront of Argentina’s renewable energy revolution, the event’s content covers the new regulatory environment in great detail and provides in-depth insight into legal and financing complexities. The 2018 edition of AIREC will take place October 22-25 in Buenos Aires.
“What is particularly exciting about the acquisition of MIREC and AIREC is that, in addition to building UBM’s presence in Latin America including our first event in Argentina, it helps establish the company in a space with so much promise—renewable energy. UBM is strengthening its commitment to the future of renewable energy and is focused on developing a global portfolio of events that serves and stimulates this exciting sector,” said Scott Schulman, CEO, UBM Americas.
Nadim Chaudhry, Founder and President of Green Power Global, commented, “This new partnership with UBM will allow the events to benefit from the strength of UBM’s existing global portfolio of clean energy events, like Renewable Energy Expo India and the Battery Show, and to grow their level international participation.”
