Greater Noida (4 January 2025): As the new year begins, Dr. Rakesh Kumar, Chairman of the India Expo Centre & Mart, reflects on the achievements and future prospects of this world-class venue. Known for his pivotal role in shaping India’s exhibition and handicrafts industry, Dr. Kumar has been instrumental in establishing the India Expo Centre & Mart as a global hub for innovation, collaboration, and growth.

With over four decades of experience, Dr. Kumar is a globally acclaimed leader. His dedication has propelled the India Expo Centre to the forefront of the exhibition industry, fostering opportunities for small businesses, entrepreneurs, and large-scale global events.

Achievements of India Expo Centre in 2024

The India Expo Centre & Mart has had a transformative year. Highlighting the achievements, Dr. Kumar shared that the Centre is not just an exhibition venue but a platform for promoting small and cottage industries. With over 900 permanent exhibitors from across India, the Centre serves as a one-stop destination for home décor, lifestyle, fashion, furniture, and gift products. These exhibitors cater to both international buyers and the domestic market, facilitating year-round trade.

A key milestone in 2024 was the launch of Expo Bazaar, a B2B cash-and-carry initiative. This vertical aims to provide comprehensive merchandising solutions for Indian and overseas buyers. Located within the complex, Expo Bazaar supports exporters and manufacturers by sourcing and distributing products nationwide.

The Centre also hosted numerous large-scale events, including:

Pharma Expo, Asia’s largest pharmaceutical event.

Bauma CONEXPO India, a premier construction industry show.

Semicon India 2024, a prestigious semiconductor conference inaugurated by the Honorable Prime Minister.

These events attracted global delegations, high-ranking officials, and industry leaders, further cementing the Centre’s reputation as an integrated, world-class facility. Unique features such as an onsite five-star hotel, helipads for VVIP arrivals, and accreditation by the Ministry of Tourism enhance its appeal as India’s top exhibition venue.

Trends in the Exhibition Industry

According to Dr. Kumar, India’s exhibition industry experienced significant growth in 2024. The sector, once nascent, has evolved rapidly, with a surge in government, corporate, and entertainment events. India Expo Centre & Mart has witnessed increased demand for conferences, large-scale meetings, and incentive-based gatherings, contributing to employment and economic development in the region.

Challenges and Opportunities

Dr. Kumar acknowledged challenges such as hotel room shortages during peak event seasons. Between September and March, the high demand for accommodation—driven by multiple concurrent events and wedding seasons—created bottlenecks. He emphasized the need for expanding hotel infrastructure in Greater Noida and the NCR region to meet growing demands.

Exciting Plans for 2025

The upcoming year promises to be equally dynamic. Major events scheduled include:

Indus School 2025, a global exhibition organized by the Trade Promotion Council of India.

Bharat Mobility 2025, a multi-venue event featuring cutting-edge urban mobility solutions such as AI-driven transport and futuristic models like pod taxis.

Additionally, the Centre will launch its own Urban Mobility Expo, focusing on multimodal transport and sustainable mobility solutions. Dr. Kumar’s vision is to position India Expo Centre & Mart as a leader in addressing the evolving demands of technology and sustainability in the mobility sector.

Message to Stakeholders

As India Expo Centre & Mart steps into 2025, Dr. Kumar shared an optimistic message:
“We are entering an era of unparalleled opportunities. The growth of the exhibition and handicrafts sectors in India is immense. Together with our team, partners, and stakeholders, we aim to achieve greater milestones and set new benchmarks in the global exhibition industry.”

Under Dr. Rakesh Kumar’s leadership, the India Expo Centre & Mart continues to thrive as a hub for global events and trade. By fostering innovation and collaboration, the Centre significantly contributes to the growth of India’s exhibition industry and handicrafts sector.
