Technology India 2016 held together this year was another feather in the cap of Messe
Frankfurt, the organisers of the exhibition. The theme of smart technologies in lighting
and building was rightly depicted. Most exhibitors demonstrated the intelligent light that
mesmerised visitors and building technologies was a fascinating addition. I wish that the
next edition in 2018 will move further ahead in its goal to bring in futuristic lighting
on display."

is the largest platform where a company can showcase its products. Being the largest fair
in the country, there could have been no better platform to introduce our brand and
products. The response has been great and it gives us a lot of conviction to come back in
2018 with a larger stall. We are very hopeful of closing deals with all the inquiries
generated in the coming months."Â

appreciated by the industry as well as visitors who got an extended choice of smart
solutions in the building automation product segments. Mr. Rupinder Singh Sachdeva,

"I must appreciate the fact that this show has given us an opportunity to connect with
some of the top brands in industry and we are amazed to see the kind of technological
advancement showcased by some of the companies exhibiting here. It is my second day at the
show and there is still a lot to explore. The show is indeed a treat to be at; we eagerly
look forward to see the next edition of the show."
Also supporting the event was the leading global body, KNX association who are the
makers of the KNX technology - the worldwide standard for all applications in home and
building control. Mr. Bhavesh Doshi, Secretary, KNX National India said, "KNX is an
association of more than 400 manufacturers worldwide making standards for home and
building controls. Here at EBT India, we are showcasing solutions from different members
at the KNX booth. We have been partnering with Messe Frankfurt for many years as part of
their flagship show Light + Building and decided to extend this partnership in India
through EBT India. Even though this is the first show, we have been getting a very good
response and I'm sure the participants have collected a lot of inquiries. I believe we
might go bigger next year and some of the members should have their own booths next time."

smart and consumer friendly innovations on display at the exhibition, Shri Sukesh Kumar
Jain, IRS, Power Secretary, Government of NCT of Delhi commended Light India Summit for
the technical insights presented at the forum. He said, "Government plans to make Delhi a
solar city and we have finalised the solar policy, with plans targeting 1000 megawatt in
