An extensive platform for the Indian construction equipment market slated for August 2021

Gandhinagar / Mumbai, September 16th, 2020: Informa Markets, (formerly UBM India), India's leading B2B exhibition organiser and K and D Communication Ltd. ( KDCL ) in a Joint Venture,  today unveiled a brand new Exhibition 'INFRACONEX' that will cater to the Indian construction equipment sector.

The three day Expo slated for 6th - 8th August 2021 at Gandhinagar, Gujarat, will focus on new launches, automation technology in construction, provide solutions to the industry drivers and forecast the challenges of the India construction equipment market through high content-driven conference, seminar & product presentation.

The announcement was virtually marked by the presence of Shri Satin Sachdeva-Founder President- Construction Equipment Rental Association (CERA); Shri Arvind Patel Chairman Gujarat Contractors Association (GCA); Shri Sanket Shah- Hon. Secretary, GIHED CREDAI, Shri Yogesh Mudras, Managing Director, Informa Markets in India and Shri Samir Kapoor- Head Projects - KDCL at the Virtual Press Conference.

The country's economy and the construction industry both have faced adversity following the COVID-19 enforced lockdown. These unprecedented scale of events had forced the industry to come to a halt forcing the migrant labour to return to their hometowns as private businesses had pessimistic views and reduced spending. The timing of the expo is in sync with the movements in the market especially in the current pandemic scenario where industries are looking forward to revival. According to a recent research report by GLEEDS, general sentiments in the market show the business to be slowly picking up, however, Q4 2020 shows a poor to moderate returns and sense of normalcy would be expected to return only in Q2 2021, provided the vaccine is found and distributed in India by year-end 2020
With the Government's mission of ATMANIRBHAR BHARAT and vision to increase MSMEs contribution to India's GDP to over 50% from the current 29%, the event will also facilitate the MSME companies with special pricing at the MSME Pavilion and will allow meeting the policymakers & buyers. Apart from providing ease of doing online business, the expo will act as a catalyst for global networking with foreign manufactures.

Speaking at the virtual Press Meet of the unveiling of INFRACONEX 2021, Mr. Yogesh Mudras, Managing Director, Informa Markets in India said, "We are extremely proud to partner with KDCL for InfraConex that will support us with their worldwide networking, pre-emptive planning and execution. With a strong base in the western region, our collaboration with KDCL will raise the platform for the construction equipment sector. We look forward to a prolific partnership with them." 

The expo will be a catalyst in the growth of the construction equipment market by creating meaningful interactions between various stakeholders of the industry such as manufacturers, suppliers, distributors, policymakers, investors, nodal agencies and associations. It will provide a platform to showcase the path-breaking technologies, automation and solutions for the industry to ascend to the next level. It will help industry stakeholders explore the latest products and technologies and thereby help them in CAPEX related decision making.
