## Summary

The Department for International Trade has awarded a contract titled "RIBA Trade Mission to Cityscape Global" under the industry category of Event Services (CPV code 79952000). The project involves a collaboration with the Royal Institute of British Architects to develop a trade mission program for the Cityscape Global exhibition in Saudi Arabia, which is anticipated to attract 200,000 visitors in 2024. The procurement, conducted using a direct procurement method due to its below-threshold value, culminated in the award to the Royal Institute of British Architects with a contract value of £15,600. The key dates include the tender period ending on 10 October 2024, the contract starting on 15 October 2024 and concluding on 30 November 2024, with the award notice published on 5 November 2024.

This tender offers significant business growth potential, especially for enterprises specialising in architectural services and event organisation. Firms that can deliver high-quality, innovative property development and related services will find this an excellent opportunity to gain visibility and network on a global stage. Established large-scale organisations, particularly those not classified as SMEs or VCSEs, would be well-suited to leverage this mission to expand their market presence internationally. By participating, businesses can showcase their expertise and build strategic alliances in a high-profile international setting, enhancing their growth prospects.

## Notice

Cityscape Global is the world's largest networking exhibition and conference for property development and was held in Saudi Arabia for the first time in 2023 attracting 160,000 visitors, and over 150 local, regional, and international real estate firms to showcase their projects and services. For 2024 they are projecting 200,000 visitors. The Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) will work closely with DBT to develop a trade mission that will facilitate a tailored programme of activity at this key global event for RIBA members and the wider UK design community to showcase UK architectural services expertise.
