The 16th edition of Projekta, the International Fair of Equipment and Services for Civil Construction, Public Works, Urban Planning, Architecture and Interior Decoration, took place in Luanda under the motto “Designing the Future, Building the Present”, an event of recognised relevance to the sector

The opening ceremony was attended by the Minister of Construction and Public Works, Manuel Tavares de Almeida, who pointed out that the Civil Construction and Public Works sector has generated over 28 thousand new jobs in the last two
years, the second sector that has created the most jobs in the country, also taking the opportunity to encourage investors to continue to invest in the transformation of local raw material to serve the domestic market: “We are encouraging the industry by creating innovative projects and appealing to private initiative so that it uses the local market and develops the construction materials and projects industry”, he stressed.
