Excon 2K21 - A Preview

Touted as the largest construction equipment trade fair in South East Asia, Excon 2K21 will take place in Bengaluru between May 17-21, 2022. The trade fair, organised by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) commands support from the host state Bengaluru, the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MORTH), Builders Association of India, IGBC, NSIC, Indian Construction Equipment Manufacturers Association (ICEMA) and the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI). This year, the trade fair has Construction Equipment (CE) majors focusing on sustainability, growth, competitiveness and technology as broad organisation-wide goals to attend. The task is cut out, to be the CE hub for the world. Internet of Things (IoT) is set to be a major focus area. No wonder then, the Business to Business (B2B) trade fair expects a footfall of 40,000+ business visitors and participation from 750+ exhibitors. This year, apart from the usual booths and experience centres, visitors can expect to come across dedicated pavilions like the Artificial Intelligence (AI) pavilion, the Finance pavilion, and an alternative fuels pavilion hinting at the direction in which the CE industry is headed. Expect women to take the wheel of these intimidating machines this year as the focus is also on highlighting the role of women in infrastructure. Indian CE majors will be accompanied by global companies, from across Germany, Italy, South Korea, Sri Lanka, Turkey, UAE, the USA and the UK making it a UFI approved, global trade fair. This year, the calendar of events will commence with an inaugural session attended by key personnel like the Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai among other dignitaries from both, within and outside the state. Atma Nirbhar Bharat, Infrastructure requirements for the armed forces to assess emerging opportunities and smart technology, a session with the Border Roads Organisation and green buildings will be discussed over the course of the trade fair.
