30 October 2007, Pakistan - Conference & Exhibitions Management Services Pte Ltd (CEMS), headquartered in Singapore, officially announced the opening of its new South Asia office in Karachi, Pakistan.

CEMS Pakistan will be a full service company to organise and manage a portfolio of events in Pakistan. Working with strategic partners such as Chan Chao International from Taiwan, CTMTC and CMEC from China to import more high profile events here, CEMS is dedicated to further promote Pakistan as a key city for exhibitions in the South Asian region.
