|---|---|---|
| VBE-01 | Delhi | November |
| VBE-02 | Mumbai | January |
| VBE-03 | Bengaluru | March |
| VBE-04 | Hyderabad | May |
| VBE-05 | Chennai | July |
| VBE-06 | Ahmedabad * | September |
This six-city sequence repeats identically for Years 2–5 (VBE-07…VBE-30), each edition assigned a unique VBE ID, all using Ahmedabad — not Pune — for the September slot. * See the September host-city conflict flag on The Six-City Roadmap.
| Journey | Scope | Editions |
|---|---|---|
| Single City | 1 city × 1 year | 1 edition |
| Multi-City | 6 cities × 1 year | 6 editions |
| Multi-Year | 1 city × 5 years | 5 editions |
| National Legacy Journey | 6 cities × 5 years | 30 editions |
⚠ The VBA source describes the programme two different ways: (a) a 5-year/30-edition model — "The VB World calendar creates 30 Mega-Event Editions across 6 Cities over 60 Months," 6 editions/year, consistent with VBC/VBE/VBW-native docs; and (b) elsewhere a 20-year/20-edition framing — "Edition 1 — Foundation of the Recognition Movement ... Edition 20 (2047) — Celebrating the Organisations that Helped Build a Viksit Bharat." Not reconciled in source, recorded as given.
All three platforms run on the same six-city, 60-month, 30-edition cadence, concurrently in each city — the sales journey, VBE index and recognition journey framings above describe one shared calendar from three angles.
⚠ No source content describes what follows the five-year/30-edition calendar, or whether sponsorship pricing varies by city/year within it — flagged rather than invented.
The calendar spans five years (60 months), repeating the same six-city sequence every year, for 30 mega-event editions total.
Choose role → city → sector → platform → session/opportunity → Express interest/book → build participation plan → become part of VB World.
No — it continues across the five-year calendar (VBE-07…VBE-30 for Years 2–5), each edition keeping a unique ID.
⚠ Not entirely — the VBA source also contains a separate 20-year/20-edition framing ("Edition 20 (2047)") alongside its 5-year/30-edition framing; the two are not reconciled.
Six cities across five years = 30 editions — the full calendar (VBA framing).
Yes — the Multi-Year and National Legacy Journey paths are explicitly structured for exactly this.
Yes — all three platforms run on the same six-city, 60-month, 30-edition cadence, concurrently in each city.
Choose your role — Speaker, Sponsor, Awardee, Exhibitor or Delegate — and route through VB World's unified Express Interest hub.
Three decades of repeat investment from India's biggest names is the clearest proof of ICE Mega Expo's exhibition value.
