What to expect at this year's CityScape Abu Dhabi

CityScape Abu Dhabi, the UAE’s most prestigious property exhibition, takes place next week at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre. Running from Tuesday to Thursday, this year’s event comes at a time when the local and regional real estate market is on the up. The show draws home-based, regional and global developers, investors and real estate asset managers eager to market their latest projects and it serves as a snapshot of the property sector both here and internationally.

In this week’s Business Extra Podcast, host Chris Nelson is joined by The National’s Business Reporter Sarah Townsend to take a look ahead to CityScape Abu Dhabi. We also talk to Henry Bott, portfolio manager at Swire Properties, the Hong Kong-based developer behind the huge Taikoo Place commercial building complex located in the Island-city’s Quarry Bay area.
