The India DVN Workshop will be on 4-5 September this year, and tomorrow, 15 May is the last day to submit a paper for consideration. Feel free to email us your abstract.
For the event, we have defined three sessions:
- Indian vehicle and lighting market: design and technical trends, LEDification, softwarisation
- 2- and 3-wheeler lighting specification: design, technology, cost
- India-specific lighting requirements: design, reliability, contamination, usage
We will also have three panel discussions:
- Regulation, with participation by GTB, ARAI, ICAT, and an Indian GRE delegate
- Design, with automaker designers
- Tier-1 CEO round table
We have already received around 20 lectures from automakers, 2-wheeler makers, lighting makers, tier-2 suppliers, test houses, and authorities, and the docket will be finalized by the end of May. We’ll publish an agenda the first week of June. This will be a very interesting workshop to learn more about the Indian lighting ecosystem. The vehicle lighting business in India currently represents between $2bn and $3bn, with strong growth potential; expected growth from 2023 to 2030 is around 8 per cent per year.
