Rolando Borges Martins / PARQUEXPO (PT)

Related Projects: Belgrade Design Week Festival 2011

Parquexpo is a company with public capital in Portugal, founded in 1993. with a goal to prepare and organize the world exhibition EXPO ’98. Company’s assignment was to revitalize and build objects in the east part of Lisbon, where this big happening found place.

After EXPO, the company did not end its existence, but continued with its work and adapted its function to new goals – revitalization of abandoned parts of the city and to the local planning. Its highly qualified employees continued with working, achieving great results in urbanism, underlining the importance of social significance, environment and economic profitability. Parque Expo works on various projects, from ruined historical monuments, old industrial plants to abandoned parts of the city. Their work can be seen all over Portugal, south Europe, Balkans, as in several African countries.

 

It was great that the speakers and the attendees were actually to share ideas and express their views as opposed to solely exhibition purposed fairs. It was very impressive, how successful and innovative individuals from various disciplines spoke about their worlds and how the audience interactively took part. To have attended and to have experienced this interaction at Belgrade Design Week made me very pleased. I would like to extend my congratulations to the BDW organizers due to this successful event.
