The construction equipment industry in India is booming, driven by several factors such as rapid infrastructure development, mining and urbanization. bauma CONEXPO INDIA will bring all these forces of demand and supply together at the India Expo Mart, Greater Noida, Delhi NCR, from December 11-14, 2024.
In 2024, India's construction and mining equipment industry experienced 26% y-o-y growth in equipment sales, including strong demand from export markets. This growth trajectory presents a significant opportunity for innovation and product diversification not only for Indian manufacturers, but also for companies around the world, and poses certain challenges in terms of building a thriving ecosystem of component suppliers, skilled service providers and future-ready R&D capabilities.
As a result, the event is deepening relationships and expanding networks with national and international equipment manufacturers and construction associations. Some of the key associations in the country include the Indian Construction Equipment Manufacturers Association (ICEMA), Builders Association of India (BAI), Construction Equipment Rental Association (CERA), Committee for European Construction Equipment (CECE), Asociación Española de Fabricantes de Maquinaria de Construcción, Obras Públicas y Minería (ANMOPYC), Cranes Owners Association of India (COAOI), Construction Federation of India (CFI) and many more.
Growing international participation
As an integral part of the bauma global trade show network in Europe, Asia and Latin America, bauma CONEXPO INDIA has become a must-attend platform for buyers and suppliers, offering an impressive experience of state-of-the-art building technologies in action, informative conferences, buyer-seller meetings, interaction with key government decision-makers, a live demonstration area, awards ceremonies, networking events and much more.
Attracted by India's strong infrastructure growth potential, the upcoming edition will see increased global participation with more than 800 Indian and international exhibitors in 135,000 square meters of exhibition space and more than 75,000 trade visitors from over 100 countries are expected.
A conference program not to be missed
Digital technologies such as AI, IoT and automation are transforming every industry, and construction equipment is on the verge of adopting these disruptive and transformative technologies. However, technical partnerships between equipment users and manufacturers are crucial for innovative technologies to be developed, priced appropriately and delivered to the most remote regions of the country. Therefore, this edition will launch a series of more than 30 conferences and technical sessions, including the Quarry Forward conference, during bauma CONEXPO INDIA 2024. These conferences will focus on a variety of topics, including equipment financing, telematics, automation, AI/IoT, skills development, sustainability and much more.
