Global conference and B2B event organizer Tradepass has launched the 2nd Annual High-Rise India Summit & Awards, scheduled to take place on 12 – 13 March, 2019 at The Leela Mumbai.
The high demand for settlement in urban areas and dearth of land space has resulted in the emergence of vertical cities to accommodate the high influx of population. India is home to some of the tallest buildings in the world. With more than 1500 high-rise buildings, Mumbai is known as the high-rise capital of India. Organizations and individuals have taken it upon their shoulders to find the most innovative and effective ways to shape the Indian skyline with their state-of-the-art, revolutionary projects in the high-rise construction sector.

Based on the theme 'Evolution of the Indian Skyline', the 2nd Annual High-Rise India Summit & Awards will provide a platform for top Builders, Contractors, Construction Companies, Architects, Designers, Developers, Engineers and representatives from the Indian Government to come together and discuss the concerns, designs and analyze solutions for the upcoming projects.
The event will also witness some of the latest innovations and technologies being developed for high-rise buildings by top innovative solution providers like Kone, Asian Paints, Alccofine, Everest Industries, Wilo Mather and Platt Pumps, Trimble Solutions India (Tekla), Kirloskar Brothers, Technocraft, Dehn India, Dow Chemicals, and Dr. Fixit (Pidilite), etc.

Over the two days, there will be presentations, interactive panel discussions, one-on-one meetings and networking sessions, followed by the HRIS Awards ceremony. The event, once again, will bring to the fore new information and fresh ideas on innovation in the high-rise construction industry. An impressive line-up of speakers will include, amongst others the following names:
