Atakent IEC, Almaty
Address: 42 Timiryazev Street, Almaty 050060. All CATE exhibitions take place at Atakent International Exhibition Centre — the largest exhibition complex in Central Asia.
From Almaty International Airport (ALA) to Atakent is about 30 minutes by taxi via ride-hailing apps. From the city centre — 10 minutes. The nearest metro station is Sayran, with buses 36, 73 and 79 running from there.
Hotels and transfers
Guests can comfortably stay in the city centre or near Atakent — business-class hotels with transfers to the exhibition complex. For international delegations we can help with bookings and transfer.
A full Almaty guide with hotel recommendations and information on visas, climate and the cultural programme is available on a separate page.
Your personal meeting programme
Once you register for the exhibition, you gain access to the B2B matchmaking platform. There you can browse all exhibitor profiles, filter by product and send meeting requests. The exhibition manager helps confirm a convenient time — and on show day you arrive with a ready negotiation schedule.
This is especially valuable for buyers and distributors: no need to walk every aisle — you can go straight to the partners that truly fit your business.
