Jury Members serve as sector experts, evaluating both Sector Company Leadership and Sector CXO Leadership recognition categories.
Jury Members are sector experts who evaluate award nominations within the 7-Hour Recognition Framework — every hour combining 1 Hyper Focus Sector Award, 2 GDP Focus Sector Awards and 2 Corporate Leadership Awards. Hour 7 adds Grand Jury Recognition Awards, Chairman's Awards and Lifetime Achievement Awards.
| Engine | Evaluates |
|---|---|
| (A) Sector Company Leadership | Innovation, scale, excellence, growth, business impact, transformation, market contribution, sustainability and sector relevance |
| (B) Sector CXO Leadership | CEOs, Chairpersons, Founders, Directors, CXOs, CFOs, COOs, Entrepreneurs |
VBA is held concurrently with VBC in each city, across the same 10 GDP sectors — 10 sector award sessions per city, across 6 cities per year, each half an hour per sector award.
Jury Members sit alongside Awardees (top CEOs/companies being evaluated) and Visitors/Delegates in the audience. Awards are given by "distinguished ministers and top government officers only."
An Awardee is nominated and evaluated; a Jury Member is the sector expert doing the evaluating. Both roles carry the same underlying Visibility Distribution benefit that runs across the VB World ecosystem — a programme capability and ambition, not a guaranteed outcome.
No confirmed past-edition VBA jury-panel evidence exists yet — VB World has not yet run a completed city edition. Evidence Coming Soon / Submit Evidence, per the source's own governance instruction.
Choose your role — Speaker, Sponsor, Awardee, Exhibitor or Delegate — and route through VB World's unified Express Interest hub.

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.
