We also have one of the fastest growing start-up ecosystems catering to niche technologies."
The three-day expo will be the largest exhibition for Micro Small and Medium Enterprises in aerospace and defence industry. IMS 2021 will provide opportunity to MSMEs from diverse Industry sectors like auto industry, industrial engineering, electronics and automation etc. IMS 2021 will also host Vendor Development Program, B2B meetings and workshops. The event will be supported by Indo German Chamber of Commerce as well as leading Industry bodies of India.

The participants in the event will include leaders from large defence global and Indian OEMs, Defence PSUs and ordinance factories as well as DRDO labs. We are also glad that Hon'ble CM has declared complete support of government of Karnataka to this event."
