key industry stakeholders after careful evaluation of the situation. Thomas Schlitt, managing director of Messe Düsseldorf India, stated, “In the current situation regarding COVID-19 in India and worldwide, we are working around undefined parameters which make event planning and logistics very difficult. “But trade fairs are more important than ever for successful business development and the recovery of the economy.
