Don't sponsor one event. Secure your place across India's five-year B2B trade journey.
VBE is designed to bring together buyers, importers, sellers, exporters and company delegations around focused sector opportunities.
VB World's source framework specifically identifies this challenge: a buyer visits an exhibition but struggles to find the right suppliers.
VBE is the Business & Trade Engine within the VB World ecosystem. It brings together relevant stakeholders around sector-specific market opportunities.
The VB World platform framework positions VBE around Business, Trade, Buyers, Sellers and Market Opportunities, with Sector Market Reports as a key outcome.
VBE provides dedicated participation journeys for different business stakeholders.

"VIKSIT BHARAT EXPO — VBE 2.0 — THE BUSINESS & TRADE ENGINE — SPONSORSHIP-FIRST • B2B TRADE • 60-MONTH NATIONAL CALENDAR."
Concurrent with VBC/VBA, VBE is "structured as a buyer-seller meet with a fireside-chat model involving SCM professionals, COOs, CFOs, sales, marketing and business heads, export and import heads, CXOs and sector experts." Output: a Sector Market Report together with Sector Future Business Growth Opportunities.
| Sponsor Problem | VBE Response |
|---|---|
| "Our brand gets visibility, but not enough business conversations" | Sector-specific B2B audience + buyer/seller engagement |
| "We need CXO access, not general footfall" | Target Sales/SCM/Procurement/CFO/COO/Business/Export/Import leaders |
| "One event is too short to build category authority" | Reserve multiple editions across the 60-month calendar |
| "We need measurable business relevance" | Buyer meetings, leads, trade-intelligence assets |
| "We need a credible national growth story" | Association with Viksit Bharat 2047 |
| "We need proof before committing" | Sponsor evidence library (past ICE stall images, narratives, videos, verified testimonials) |
Sponsorship routes: Ecosystem Sponsorship (large corporates/PSUs/MNCs, one partnership across VBC+VBA+VBE), Individual VBE Full Day, Individual VBE Fire Chat/Sector, Hall/Day Sponsorship, Superstar Sponsor, Star Sponsor — plus five Exhibition Tiers: Corporate Platinum, Corporate Gold, Corporate Silver, Premium Platinum, MSME Stall.
Who participates: Importers/Buyers (SCM, OEMs, procurement, distributors, institutional/corporate buyers, government procurement, international buyers); Exporters/Sellers (SCM, manufacturers, exporters, MSMEs, startups, solution providers); Company Delegations (Sales, SCM, Procurement, Finance, COO, Business Development, Export, Import, Marketing, Leadership).
Confirmed pattern — Year 1: VBE-01 Delhi (Nov), VBE-02 Mumbai (Jan), VBE-03 Bengaluru (Mar), VBE-04 Hyderabad (May), VBE-05 Chennai (Jul), VBE-06 Ahmedabad (Sep); this six-city sequence repeats identically for Years 2–5 (VBE-07…VBE-30), each edition assigned a unique VBE ID.
⚠ The VBE source uses Ahmedabad for the September slot, consistent with the VBW-native/VBA city table — not with the VBC file's alternate "Pune" city-circuit table. Both recorded, neither deleted.
"DO NOT INVENT TESTIMONIALS." Only verified ICE/VBE sponsor names, quotes, images and outcomes are published; where evidence is still being collected, an "Evidence Coming Soon / Submit Evidence" placeholder is used rather than fabricated proof — a verbatim governance rule from the VBE source, not a page-design choice.
Choose your role — Speaker, Sponsor, Awardee, Exhibitor or Delegate — and route through VB World's unified Express Interest hub.

⚠ Conflict — unresolved: the VBE 60-month index states Ahmedabad; the VBC file's separate circuit table instead lists Pune for the same September slot. Both recorded, neither deleted.
VB World is a business ecosystem/platform operated by India Global Expo News Platform Private Limited.
IGEN World is part of the digital ecosystem operated by India Global Expo News Platform Private Limited. IGEN World is intended to provide a year-round digital layer for business visibility, industry information, networking, knowledge and ecosystem engagement.
Yes. The two platforms are presented as connected components of one broader ecosystem — VB World is the Physical Business Ecosystem, and IGEN World is the Digital Business Ecosystem.
The legal entity is India Global Expo News Platform Private Limited (CIN: U82300KA2025PTC213136, GSTIN: 29AAICI5897E1ZZ), displayed consistently across VB World and IGEN World.
Yes. India Global Expo News Platform Private Limited is recognised as a startup by the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT), Government of India, under the Startup India initiative (Certificate No. DIPP275775, recognised 06 August 2026).
Directly on the official Startup India portal: startupindia.gov.in — search Certificate No. DIPP275775, or use the direct verification link in our Trust Centre.
No. Government recognition of an eligible startup is not the same as government endorsement of any specific event, claim, partner or commercial activity conducted through the platform.
The CIN and GSTIN help stakeholders identify the legal corporate entity and registered tax identity behind the platform, creating a direct, verifiable connection between the website and its corporate registration.
Because our approach to trust is based on transparency rather than claims. We identify the legal organisation behind the platforms, disclose corporate identifiers, present our DPIIT recognition and its official verification link, explain our business ecosystem, and identify our leadership team. Trust is not a badge — it is a process of transparency, evidence and accountability.
Three decades of repeat investment from India's biggest names is the clearest proof of ICE Mega Expo's exhibition value.
