Koelnmesse extends events contract in India


News this week: Koelnmesse through its Indian subsidiary, Koelnmesse YA Tradefair, has signed an agreement with the Institute of Indian Foundrymen (IIF) to continue to organise foundry trade fairs IFEX and Cast India Expo until 2017.

IFEX has been jointly organised by Koelnmesse and IFF since 2006 and Cast India Expo since 2010. The co-located events are held in a different city each year. The last edition of the trade fairs recently took place in Kolkata at the end of January.

Gerald Böse, CEO of Koelnmesse GmbH, said, “This is a clear indication that Koelnmesse will continue to expand its business activities in India, which is one of the core countries of our growth strategy outside Germany.”
