The International Sourcing Exposition for Elevators and Escalators (ISEE) is a biannual show,
scheduled from December 1st to 3rd, 2022 Hall 1, at Bombay Exhibition Centre, Mumbai. This first
edition is being organized and managed under the Company- TAK Expo Pvt Ltd. This new entity will
manage shows, events and programs primarily to benefit the Elevator and Escalator Industry.
International Sourcing Exposition for Elevators and Escalators (ISEE) is being launched with the
objective of ensuring a show that is an industry event which is by the industry, of the industry
and for the industry. The first edition has received support from various trade associations
such as Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH India), International Association of
Elevator Consultants (IAEC), Fire and Safety Association of India (FSAI), Karnataka Elevator
Manufacturers Association (KEMA) and Delhi Elevator Association (DEA), etc. The show is also
supported by TAK Consulting Pvt Ltd and the Elevator and Escalator Safety Trust. Interface Data
and Design; a company with over 2 decades of experience in the exhibition, event and
registration management space is extending support to TAK Expo to manage ISEE. Interface Data
and Design will also bring in the cutting-edge technologies to enhance the visitors’ experience
and value adds to the exhibitors. The show concept is evolved keeping in mind the visitors’
overall experience and expectation. The OEMs and component suppliers who show interest to
participate at the show are selected after due process. From an exhibitor’s perspective, to
maximise the time with customer group, exhibitors from each category will be limited. An attempt
will also be made to regulate the quality of visitors by charging a nominal entry fee which in
turn shall be directly donated to EEST (a registered charity entity with 80G benefits). A
special training room has been set up for conducting need-based certification programs for
industry professionals and end users. Multiple panel discussions will also be held to strengthen
the collaboration between the E&E industry and realty industry constituents. Another special
feature of the show will be the dedicated “Aesthetics Pavilion”. A group of domain experts with
specialisation in the diverse aspects that go into making an aesthetic elevator (orescalator)
like fixtures, displays, wall panelling, glass, IoT mirrors, lighting, flooring etc. have
commenced collaboration towards conceptualising and developing this pavilion. To acknowledge the
first exhibitors, ISEE has created a group called the “First Exhibitors”. The “First Exhibitors”
will have prominence and preference in all of ISEE’s publicity, advertising material and
sponsorship opportunities. The confirmed First Exhibitors to date include segment leaders like
Avire, Bharat Bijlee, City Lifts, Echar Elevators, Eskay Elevators, Esquire, Johnson Lifts,
Kinetic, Oleo, Otis,Naman Steel, Standard Elevators, Toshiba, Wittur etc . Mr. G. Shanker,
Marketing Intelligent Specialist to ISEE said, “The launch of “International Sourcing Expo for
Elevators and Escalators” is an excellent development for the E and E industry in India. As
Iunderstand it, the Exposition will show-case the industry’s strengths in the manufacturing
space as well as facilitate technology flow. The recent turbulence caused by trade frictions in
theinternational arena, may lead to new manufacturing opportunities for Indian component
manufacturers. Mr. Trevor Rodericks, the literal Encyclopaedia of the Elevator Industry
commented, The new venture will definitely help the Elevator and Escalator Industry as well as
guide users of this fast developing requirement.
