Convergence India Expo
ActiveOverview
Convergence India Expo is a long-running trade exhibition series in India focused on telecommunications, digital broadcast, media technology, and adjacent technology sectors. The event is organized by Exhibitions India Group, and the official site describes EIG as a trade promotion organization established in 1987.3
The expo is positioned as a broad industry platform for telecom, broadcast, digital media, IoT, AI, smart cities, and related enterprise technologies, bringing together exhibitors, policymakers, and buyers around technology trends and business development.21 It is notable for its longevity and for evolving from a communications and ICT event into a multi-sector technology showcase.21
History
The Convergence India expo series was launched in 1992, according to industry/event listings, while the organizer, Exhibitions India Group, says it was established in 1987.23 The event has grown from a communications and ICT exhibition into a larger technology show covering broadcast, digital media, IoT, AI, AR/VR, robotics, and enterprise technology.2
The official 2026 materials describe the expo as having a 33-year legacy and identify the 33rd edition for 2026, which is consistent with a launch in the early 1990s.1 The event continues to expand its scope through conference programming and co-located themes such as smart cities and future technologies.15

Reputation
Among exhibitors and attendees, the event is generally viewed as a major Indian technology trade show with broad sector coverage and a long history.24 Review listings show generally positive attendee feedback, though those ratings reflect the event experience more than any product or brand quality.4
Its main strengths are scale, cross-industry reach, and relevance to telecom/broadcast/digital convergence themes.21 A likely criticism is that, as a large multi-topic expo, the breadth can reduce specialization for any single niche audience.
