India International
Trade Fair (IITF) is the biggest platform available for the manufacturers, traders,
exporters and importers to catalyse their growth and invade new avenues. This annual event
is held in India's largest and only World class exhibition complex, Pragati Maidan, New
Delhi. This year also, the even more enthusiastic ITPO proudly announces its annual
mega-event, the India International Trade Fair 2004. 24th in the series, IITF 2004 will be
held at its usual premier venue Pragati Maidan in New Delhi from November 14 - 27, 2004.
This year, the fair has exclusively been dedicated to the two most important sectors of
Indian economy i.e. AGRICULTURE and INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY.

| Agriculture, the most important sector of the Indian
industry, is almost indispensable for the sustenance and growth of our economy. More than
half of the Indian population is associated with this sector for its livelihood. That is
the reason why agriculture is referred to as the backbone of Indian economy. By and large,
India is still dependent on traditional methods of irrigation. This leaves a vast scope of
development and advancement in the agriculture sector. |

| On the other hand, IT is emerging as a boon for the Indian
economy. The pace with which this industry has established itself in India is exemplary of
the fact that India has the optimum appetite and attitude for this industry. In recent
times, software development and IT enabled services have emerged as niche opportunities
for India in the global context. The domestic intake as well as export for IT related
products and services is encountering a manifold increase every year. India being the
largest telecom market in the world is sure to become the apple of the eyes of IT enabled
nations worldwide. IITF 2004, the 24th mega
fair for the promotion of Indian trade, has recognized the untapped potential of these
sectors and has made them the highlighting features of this fair. There would be an
evermore stress on the development and facilitation of these sectors. This thematic
approach of the fair is an ovation to the two pillars of Indian industry - Agriculture and
IT. |
