Smart Industry Solutions India (SIS India) will be a one-stop platform to access end-to-end manufacturing solutions exhibited by technology-leading companies

The manufacturing sector in India is emerging as a powerhouse sector since the dawn of Industry 4.0. Government initiatives like Make in India, Smart Cities Mission and Digital India are playing catalyst in the development of this sector, leading India and its manufacturers through a revolutionary change in the way they function. India’s manufacturing sector has the potential to touch $ 1 trillion (Rs 65,000 crore) by 2025.

To sustain this kind of progress India needs combined efforts from all the industries, the government and use of best in class set-ups by manufacturers. Driven by this objective, Messe Frankfurt India has launched a dedicated pavilion on ‘Smart manufacturing: Future factory’ at the Smart Industry Solutions India (SIS India) to be scheduled from December 13-15, 2017 at Bombay Convention and Exhibition Centre, Mumbai.

“The Indian industrial sector is a powerful segment where industries are rapidly evolving with the help of Industry 4.0. It gives me immense pleasure to be a part of this industrial revolution through the launch of Smart Industry Solutions. The first edition of the three-day event will have some of the biggest names in the industry who will bring pioneering technological solution to the show floor,” said Raj Manek, Executive Director and Board Member, Messe Frankfurt Asia Holding Ltd.

End-to-end solutions

SIS India is a one stop platform to access end-to-end manufacturing solutions exhibited by technology-leading companies. This prime business trade fair will be a focused solution providing platform to address the needs of ‘Future Factory’. Agreeing to the sentiment, Dattatreya Gaur, Vice President, Robert Bosch Engineering and Business Solutions Private Limited, said, “Industry 4.0/smart manufacturing is a ‘must adopt’ practice for Indian manufacturing industry to compete in the global digital economy. Future Factory will present colleagues in the industry with a one-stop shop to learn, network and acquire partners in implementing future ready manufacturing practices. Together we will ensure that each edition of the event is packed with innovation, live learning exhibits and disruptive content.”
