Sep 16, 2020
New Delhi [India] September 16 (ANI/PRNewswire): Informa Markets in India (formerly UBM India), India's leading B2B exhibition organizer, announced the launch of the second editions of IFSEC India Virtual Expo and OSH India Virtual Expo on September 17-18, 2020.
The virtual shows have been organized as a result of the positive feedback from the security & surveillance, and the occupational safety & health industries to the debut virtual shows that were held in June and July 2020.
The virtual expos will be a part of the Informa Markets in India's Super September- Virtual B2B celebration, a powerful array of six digital expos in six key verticals in the month of September 2020.
The initiative of the Virtual B2B Celebration will help the relevant communities, and businesses overcome the limitations of lockdown, achieve business goals and provide a powerful edge as the economy readies itself to get back on track.
"Businesses and workplaces are currently at a tipping point in their journey to recover from the pandemic. Although budgets are a constraint, sizeable investments in surveillance and digital transformation have been necessary for the professional establishments. Besides, commercial establishments continue to face complex challenges associated with enabling a remote workforce, a significant percentage of whom have dealt with stress, overcoming supply chain disruption, or embracing new digital platforms. These platforms will continue to serve in the future. For instance, the global electronic security systems market, estimated at USD 45 billion due to Covid-19 is expected to reach USD 70.4 billion by 2027. It is therefore critical for the relevant businesses to leverage as well as understand trends and latest offerings which our shows offer," said Yogesh Mudras, Managing Director, Informa Markets in India, at the announcement of the IFSEC Virtual Expo and the OSH Virtual Expo.
"The shows are also significant additions and contributors to our Super September - Virtual B2B Celebrations. The digital celebration caters to green energy, pharma, travel and tourism, packaging, occupational health & safety, and security and surveillance along with a host of conferences. This year, with our strategy to implement a hybrid version of shows, the digital offerings in September will complement the physical shows," he further added.
"While one cannot overstate the importance of physical expos, our virtual events enabled us to keep the community engaged. After all, digital consumption has grown substantially in the pandemic and will continue to do so. Our customers have also adapted rapidly to the digital medium as face to face engagements are not happening. Quality of speakers, attendees, and delegates don't feel the constraint of geographies," said Pankaj Jain, Group Director, and Digital Head, Informa Markets in India.
