Inter Ads Exhibition
This is the first time that SIAL is bringing Vinexposium’s live show format to the country. After the success of SIAL we thought this was the right time to add a new flavour to the show. After a year of uncertainty, we are excited to announce a leading new International Exhibition in India.

To be one of the top business brands dedicated to wine and spirits we need to open doors to new territories; and being a pioneer in India is an important step for Vinexposium. We believe India is the next big thing and I am very much thrilled by the prospects of launching Vinexpo India, it is an important milestone for the future.
