Scheduled to take place from Sept. 10 to 12 at the Bombay Exhibition Centre, Mumbai, the forthcoming exhibition is co-organized by the Ministry of Urban Development, Government of India.

The event will be inaugurated by Dr. Ranjit Patil, Minister of State for Urban Development, Government of Maharashtra, and is further supported by different bodies, including the Indian Institute of Architecture (IIA), Council of Architecture (COA), The Confederation of Real Estate Developers' Associations of India (CREDAI), Builders Association of India (BAI), RICS (Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors), and American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE).

Talking about the property, Simon Mellor, President – Middle East and Asia, dmg events said, “We conceptualized ‘The BIG 5 Construct India’ to speed up the buying and selling process within the construction, real estate and architectural design segment. This unique platform offers opportunities to not just accelerate your business potential but also creates long lasting relationships amongst the key decision makers i.e developers, architects, interior designers, builders, PMC’s, brand owners and solution providers through an interactive conference agenda, face-to-face meetings and five-star networking activities, all under one roof. This critical mix of activities ascertains the ideal podium to do business.”

Mike Allsopp, Senior Vice President, Middle East, India and Asia, dmg events added, “As a platform strategised for the transformation of the procurement practices of the continent, ‘BIG 5 Construct India’ would enable business units to achieve value from the buyer-supplier relationships by facilitating ample dialogue amongst the key stakeholders of the industry”.

This year, The BIG 5 Construct India will showcase 250+ global technologies, trends and solutions as well as 24 CPD certified technical workshops, sessions and seminars. Additionally, the conference is expected to attract the who’s who of the construction & building industries, architects, builders, consultants, contractors, engineers, policy makers, senior officials and decision makers from government and public sector undertakings/ inter-governmental agencies, research bodies, and so on.

On the areas of focus at the event, Arbind Prasad, Director General, FICCI said, “The burgeoning urban populations, fast-growing cities and demographic shifts are creating varied demands among end consumers in India. This has helped in reinforcing a need among developer-architect groups to bring forth the landmark structures of the future. The status of real estate/ infrastructure projects is worsened by the absence of an appropriate procurement planning. The challenge lies in getting the right material at the right time within the budgeted cost.”
