Construction Week featured Finland representative, Severi Keinala this week. Some great footage of overall construction in there too.

Wise words from Finland's Expo 2020 representative:

Keinälä told Arabian Business: “We may find that a one-year delay presents new opportunities for Dubai and all the countries participating in Expo 2020 Dubai.

“Historically, after a significant economic downturn, new growth eventually emerges, and autumn 2021 could become a significant milestone, marking our achievement of overcoming the worst and marching on towards a full recovery.

“It will be a time to re-establish long-lasting business connections and forge new relationships globally, all while showcasing some of the world’s greatest innovations.
