The shipping industry is considered to be a catalyst for economic development, as it facilitates 90% of world trade.
Indian government has announced a combined US$ 110 billion package to develop its ports and shipbuilding industry by 2020. The overall cargo traffic at major ports in India is about 600 million tones and is likely to reach 1,230 million tonnes by 2015 and 3,000 million tons by 2020 growing at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of about 20 per cent. The Indian maritime sector facilitates not only transportation of national and international cargo but also provides a variety of other services such as cargo handling services, shipbuilding and ship repairing, freight forwarding, lighthouse facilities and training of marine personnel etc. Against a background of globalisation and liberalisation, the global shipping industry has increasingly started looking to India for shipbuilding, ship repair and many other services.
The international INMEX conference takes place alongside the exhibition with session themes focused on the issues and solutions within the Indian maritime sector and are chaired by industry leaders and spokespersons
