Conference Overview

After the grand success of India Steel 2017; Ministry of Steel, Government of India and FICCI are organizing the fourth mega exhibition-cum-conference on Indian steel industry titled INDIA STEEL 2019 from January 22-24, 2019 at NSE Complex Goregaon, Mumbai.

With opportunities galoring, the Indian steel sector is all set to grow. The flux in the global arena has opened up new channels for the development. This change is not only driving demand for steel but also creating new horizons for innovative state-of-the-art usage of steel.

On-going rapid urbanization in India is driving steel-intensive growth in the country. The Indian government is investing heavily in infrastructure and has laid plans to boost domestic steel capacity to 300 MT per annum by 2025.

Our endeavour, through this conglomeration of Government, policy makers, industrial leaders and potential investors from all across the world is to discuss the new growth drivers that are revolutionizing the Indian steel (along with upstream and downstream industries) and assess challenges & opportunities associated with technology adoption.


Conference Format

The conference would be inaugurated following the exhibition inauguration and would focus upon the Indian steel industry highlighting the current trends, developments, challenges and future prospects. Aligned with the theme, the conference would then have technical sessions highlighting upon the Indian mining perspective (& its linkage to Indian steel), technological advancements in the production process, increasing demand for steel products in India, augmentation of logistics infrastructure and key milestones in the journey of the industry to 2025. Special sessions would be organized for secondary steel sector, metal recycling and focussed areas of the industry like Steel Movement by Railways and Water Management in Steel Plants. Sessions themed upon Make in India and Smart Cities would also be organized during the event.
