“The wealth of knowledge accumulated during the 17th IRF World Meeting & Exhibition in Riyadh was the driving force behind our decision to launch the IRF Examiner as a freely available resource for the industry,” recalled IRF Chairman Eng. Abdullah Al-Mogbel. “As the road sector delivers increasingly sophisticated solutions addressing our societies new mobility needs, the availability of global knowledge resources such as those provided by the IRF is now more important than ever.”
