Messe Stuttgart is set to enter the Indian market. The company announced the move at a gala launch ceremony graced by Shri Mangal Prabhat Lodha, Honourable Minister of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship (Maharashtra) as the chief guest along with other key dignitaries, consulates, ambassadors, and business tycoons.
The Messe’s expansion into the Indian market includes the launch of its subsidiary, Messe Stuttgart India, as well as the introduction of new exhibitions including: MOLDEX, the international fair on tools, patterns, and mould making, FASTNEX, the international trade fair for the fastener and fixing industry.
“The fact that Germany is bringing a skills exhibition to India (DIDAC Skills) reflects its goodwill and intention. India has a vast workforce, and we need robust support for skill development. Through this new collaboration, together, we aspire to elevate exhibitions and skills development to new heights and attract a larger audience. We come with genuine intentions, a commitment to transparent working, and a long-term vision. We aim to work in close partnership with the government, supporting our students and contributing to their future success.” said the minister.
“We are thrilled to bring Messe Stuttgart’s legacy of excellence to the dynamic Indian market. Our entry into India signifies the beginning of a new era in the world of trade fairs and exhibitions. With Messe Stuttgart India, the possibilities are endless, and we are dedicated to making a significant impact on business, education, and skill development in India,” said Roland Bleinroth, CEO of Messe Stuttgart.
Messe Stuttgart has a proud history in the trade fair industry, with a strong foothold in Europe. The company organises over 60 successful trade fairs of which 40 are the organisation’s own shows.
LogiMAT India, a satellite show of LogiMAT Stuttgart, is another feather in Messe Stuttgart India’s cap. It is the world’s largest Intralogistics exhibition and will serve as a hub for the entire logistics community, including intralogistics, transportation management, warehousing, supply chain solutions, and automation.
