World Expo 2020 at Dubai - 20 October 2020 to 10 April 2021: The Government of India along with the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) as industry partner, will be participating at the World Expo 2020 to be held in Dubai from 20th October 2020 to 10th April 2021. World Expos are held once in 5 years with a 6 month long exposition providing an opportunity to the participating countries to present the latest and best in technology and new ideas to the global market. It is the world’s largest meeting place, bringing together countries, the private sector, the civil society and the general public around interactive exhibitions, live shows, workshops, conferences and much more. The six-month-long exposition in Dubai aims to bring together the world under a central theme of Connecting Minds, Creating The Future. The overall broader theme will sit on three sub-themes - Opportunity, Mobility and Sustainability. 190 countries have confirmed their participation at the Expo which is likely to attract a footfall of about 26 million people from across the world.
India is a Strategic partner of the host country and also one of the chosen few to have one of the best plot for country pavilion and also to be given the opportunity to keep the pavilion in the legacy phase. India’s showcasing will be dynamic, presenting a constantly moving exposition over the 6 months starting 20th October 2020 to 10th April 2021. India Pavilion will be a permanent structure and India is one of the few countries which have the benefit of using the pavilion in the legacy phase.
We encourage the Guyanese industry to connect with FICCI at dilip.chenoy@ficci.com to draw up not only joint programmes but also investor and buyers meet as well as Ministerial meetings, covering both B2B and B2G.
