Military Modernisation

Buy For India, Make In India

BW Businessworld along with Salute is organizing this conclave with a focus on India’s defence acquisition process, and comprehensively review the requirements of the Indian armed forces and identify how companies can address these requirements. The idea is to provide major aerospace and defence companies an opportunity to promote their products to a targeted audience and therefore place them in serious consideration for use by the Indian armed forces.

The conclave will offer a platform to a large number of defense companies that had visited India for the DefExpo 2018 or already have a presence in India, with top defense officials, media personnel and military commentators in attendance. The conclave will comprise of a full day of interactive sessions, including networking sessions with policy makers from the Ministry of Defence and other military officials.
