The first Global Textile Technology & Engineering Show (GTTES) 2015 is all set to open up with focus on the post-spinning segment and provide a one stop solution for every business in the textile sector.

More than 300 exhibitors are expected at this event, with strong representation from countries such as China, Taiwan, Korea, Japan, the US and India. Seven companies from Coimbatore are also expected to participate, according to International Textile Machinery Exhibitions Society, India (ITME) organizer of this event.

This event is also supported by the Heavy Industries Ministry (Government of India) and the Textile Department (Maharashtra Government).

With the constant development of technology, ITME felt it would be appropriate to hold a complementary event between the ITME series, said the Vice-Chairman of ITME Senthil Kumar, justifying the reason for organizing such an event.

The organizers are planning a special session on the Government procurement process and information relating to subsidies available to SMEs.

Apart from the live demo during the expo, the exhibitors will have an opportunity to promote their brands and services online for three months in the run-up to the event which is now on.

Overseas delegations from Ethiopia, Sudan, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Korea, Mozambique, Egypt, China, Taiwan and Sri Lanka are expected to visit GTTES 2015, he said.

GTTES would be a complementary show to the India ITME series, held once every four years.

GTTES 2015 is scheduled to be held between January 20 and 22 at the Bombay Convention and Exhibition Centre, Mumbai.
