The tenth Kids India will take place from 12th to 14th September, with a focus on the new startup area and tailored packages offering young companies the ideal entry point to international business.
Indicators in the Indian toy market point clearly to growth due to the country’s demographic structure, with a very high proportion of younger people and a growing middle class whose incomes are rising. The gateway to this exciting market is Kids India in Mumbai; the tenth edition of India’s most important international B2B trade fair for toys, children’s products and sports goods takes place from 12th to 14th September.
Registration for Kids India has been open to companies since March. Feedback from the sector is positive and established businesses have already confirmed that they will be taking part. For interested startups, the organisers are making available, for the first time, an attractive full-service package. Young businesses will have the opportunity to be included in the Startup Pavilion. The offer includes a 6m² fully equipped stand in close proximity to other national and international startups. In addition, it covers access to a shared meeting lounge for discussions with customers and a product presentation in the conference area of the fair.
“Through this new area, we can promote promising companies of the next generation in the sector and their innovative approaches,” explains Christian Ulrich, spokesperson of the executive board at Spielwarenmesse eG.
At the previous edition, 160 exhibitors presented a broad range of goods and services in 18 product groups. In the Jio World Convention Centre, they met up with 5313 trade visitors from 35 countries. Alongside the opportunity to talk to international buyers, Kids India offers a comprehensive conference programme including seminars and podium discussions. The event is organised by the Indo-German Chamber of Commerce. Leading industry associations, the Sports Goods Export Promotion Council (SGEPC) and The All India Toy Manufacturers’ Association (TAITMA), are supporting the event.
