Close to 250 Indian ICT firms will display their products and solutions to the discerning buyers.
“Participation of foreign companies in INDIASOFT is a recent development. More and more foreign companies are showing interest in taking part in the show, because of its unique appeal and focus on small and medium IT segment. We hope that their participation will grow. At the same time, our target audience will remain as Indian SMEs and startups,” says Mr. Kamal Vachani, Regional Director, UAE, Electronics and Computer Software Export Promotion Council.
Billed as one of the largest shows in the IT domain, INDIASOFT is being held in different cities on a yearly basis in India. Supported by the Union Ministry of Commerce and Industry, since its inception, this year’s show will have several new facets keeping in view the focus laid by the government to usher in a digital revolution in the country. The two-day show will enable the Indian IT companies to diversify to the new and emerging global markets, says Mr. D K Sareen, Executive Director, Electronics and Computer Software Export Promotion Council.
“Keeping in tune with the focus laid down by the government for promoting startups in the digital domain, we expect a lot of small and mid-size companies and startups to participate at the show to familiarize themselves with the requirements of the foreign buyers.
ICT landscape globally is undergoing a change and Indian IT scenario would have to adapt to the changing needs of the overseas clients. Application of IT in other business sectors is increasing phenomenally be, it relating to governance, education, day to day handling of small businesses, e-commerce, or for providing services to households. Larger business units are considering IT as a different business activity and are outsourcing such works rather than doing it in-house. Also, a large number of developing countries and least developed countries are embarking on IT application, which would push up substantially the IT businesses.
Mr. Kamal Vachani said that INDIASOFT is designed to project India’s IT capabilities in the tier 2 & 3 cities which are keen to work with their counterparts in new & emerging markets. It will also highlight that Indian software industry possesses unmatchable quality software & services to offer. ESC is hosting a large delegation from Middle East at INDIASOFT 2019.
