Over the past weeks, several large businessmen have visited the String Technologies Testing Centre in Sharjah. We are telling you about the meetings with each of the guests.
Dr Ramzi Al Halasa, Member of the Board of Directors of Hamriyah Steel, the leading steel producer in the UAE
Representatives of the Center told Mr Ramzi Al Halasa about the main advantages of the SkyWay transport: low cost of construction, environmental friendliness, safety for passengers and the possibility of introducing the technology into the existing urban infrastructure.
In addition, the founder of the project Anatoli Unitsky presented the delegate with his autobiography "Engineer", which describes in detail the history of the string transport creation.
Mr Shaiban Mohammed Shaiban Alyasi Almheiri, Chairman of Virtus Group, a Canadian consulting company
After the presentation of the string transport possibilities , Mr Shaiban Mohammed Shaiban Alyasi Almheiri tested the technology in practice and made a test trip on the tropical Unicar.
The guest was very impressed with the Testing Centre and wished for further development of the project.
Mr René Hazekamp, owner of the Dutch advertising company Reha Reclame & Design
Mr Rene Hazekamp was most impressed by the competitive advantages of the technology. We remind you that the cost of the string track construction is 1.5-2 times lower than the cost of building a railway, and 5-7 times lower than the cost of building an aboveground and underground metro.
Like other distinguished guests, Mr Rene Hazekamp was gifted the books authored by Anatoli Unitsky to further explore the prospects and possibilities of the string transport.
Mr Oswaldo Anyosa, Advisor to the Mayor of the municipality of Huamanga, Peru
Mr Anyosa also got to know about the features of the technology, took a test drive on the tropical Unicar, and after the tour, he expressed his intention to start cooperating with the project.
For its part, the company, which is promoting the project in the UAE, has confirmed its readiness to develop relationships with foreign partners. Meetings with delegates at the Testing Centre in Sharjah are precisely intended to speed up work in this direction.
