Exhibition Showcase Magazine, Asia’s leading exhibition-industry media house, is pleased to announce the successful commencement of the Event Vendors Selection Forum (EVSF) 2025 – Mumbai Chapter. Held today, 27th September 2025, at the ITME Centre, Nariman Point, Mumbai, the event marked a milestone in fostering collaborations within the exhibition and MICE industry.
The forum brought together 30 leading organisers and 30 top service providers, creating a powerful matchmaking platform with vendor showcases, structured networking, and agenda-driven discussions. EVSF is designed to directly connect organisers with credible vendors across multiple segments, addressing the precise needs of event stakeholders.
Key Highlights & Industry Perspectives:
Raghav Khosla, Group Editor, Exhibition Showcase: “An innovative platform designed to cut through the clutter and directly connect organisers with credible vendors. The forum creates tangible value for both sides of the ecosystem.”
Max Fernandes, Sr. Group Director, Informa Markets: “This initiative comes at the right time as organisers seek reliable, smart solutions. EVSF unites stakeholders under one roof. Congratulations to Team Exhibition Showcase.”
Jayesh Khimji Rambhia, Hon. Chairman, AIPMA Plastivision India: “This initiative is much needed and should expand to more cities and regions.”
Shamal Pote, Director – National Exhibitions, GJEPC India: “India’s event industry is growing rapidly, and EVSF will play a pivotal role in bridging demand and dependable services.”
Satyendra Mehra, Group Director, NürnbergMesse: “An impressive launch that rightly emphasizes service providers as partners to organisers.”
Kailash Murarka, Vice President, Regent Plast Pvt. Ltd.: “A focused, high-value platform fostering meaningful connections and collaborations that drive growth and innovation.”
Seema Srivastava, Executive Director, ITME: “EVSF offers an unparalleled opportunity for stakeholders to engage, exchange ideas, and explore innovative solutions for the ecosystem.”
The event also witnessed the presence of industry leaders, including:
- Vinod Saigal, Senior Director, Messe Muenchen India
- Bhavesh Thakkar, Founder, Jess Ideas
- Mayur Jathar, Executive Officer, IEEMA (Indian Electrical & Electronics Manufacturers Association)
Why EVSF Stands Out:
- Compact Yet Powerful: 30 curated participants in each city ensure exclusivity and focus.
• Dual-City Advantage: Delhi and Mumbai editions guarantee impactful outreach.
• Media Amplification: Participants benefit from Exhibition Showcase’s strong media ecosystem – print, digital, YouTube, and All India Exhibition Directory.
With the successful Mumbai edition setting the tone, EVSF is set to continue strengthening connections across India’s vibrant exhibition industry.
