NEW DELHI: The 4th Electronics for You Expo (EFY Expo) 2014 aims to bring the entire electronics industry under one roof from February 20-22, 2014, at Pragati Maidan, New Delhi. This is the only electronics event that covers the entire eco-system of the electronics industry as it focuses on the electronics value chain, including components, parts, materials, manufacturing services and equipments.

The EFY Expo is a comprehensive and ideal platform for the electronics industry, where exhibitors comprise innovators, designers, manufacturers and sellers. The expo attracts visitors from all the functional branches and verticals of the electronics industry including buyers, production managers as well as engineers (from R&D and design), and innovators.

In 2014, the industry will see a fresh set of exhibitors and visitors at the expo. The aim of the 4th edition of the EFY Expo is to highlight the strength of the domestic electronics market, which is blooming with the active support of various departments of the Government of India. The support has fled to far-fetched foreign countries who have shown interest in our domestic market and we hope this expo will act as a catalyst for the growth of the industry.

At the EFY Expo 2013, various conferences and seminars were held targeting different segments of the electronics industry along with the new innovative attractions like India's first LIVE SMT LINE, T&M INDIA, DeitY Lounge, buyer-seller meet etc.

Looking forward, this year the EFY Expo will see some new initiatives added to present the industry with an exciting event to look forward to. This year there is also a provision for those who cannot make it to the expo, called the VIRTUAL EXPO, which will offer the opportunity to interact with the exhibitors from the comfort of their home/office. And all those who were impressed with the concept of live SMT line at the EFY Expo 2013 can now look forward to the live manufacturing of finished electronic goods at the EFY Expo 2014. And, if you are lucky, you can take them home absolutely free. The buyer-seller meet, power-packed conferences and green energy zone will be the other few activities to watch out for.

The EFY Expo is organised by the EFY Group that publishes South Asia's most popular electronics magazine, Electronics For You (popularly known as EFY), which is recognised by the Indian electronics industry as a publication that is integral to the growth of the sector. It has been the trusted sounding board for the industry over the last four decades.
