Organized by global exhibitor Messe Stuttgart India in partnership with the India Didactics Association (IDA), DIDAC India 2024 stands as a testament to India’s growing importance on the global education stage. The event provides a dynamic platform for global stakeholders to explore innovative solutions that are poised to reshape educational practices in India and across Asia.

India’s Education Industry Set for Explosive Growth: The global education industry is anticipated to reach USD 10 trillion in the next decade, with a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 4.5%. This sector is projected to contribute over 6% of the global GDP, making it one of the key drivers of economic development worldwide. India, in particular, is witnessing a transformation in its education and skilling landscape, with its industry projected to reach USD 313 billion by 2030.

As AI-driven solutions and technology continue to shape the future of education, India is well-positioned to lead the charge in embracing these innovations. According to Aditya Gupta, CEO of the India Didactics Association, DIDAC India 2024 plays a pivotal role in supporting the government’s vision of enhancing the nation’s education system by bringing together global thought leaders, educators, policymakers, and industry professionals for a comprehensive exploration of cutting-edge solutions.

A Showcase of Global Innovation: This year’s edition of DIDAC India features an impressive lineup of international pavilions, with participation from countries such as Germany, Finland, the United Kingdom, the State of Victoria (Australia), and the State of New South Wales (Australia). These pavilions, along with prominent exhibitors such as Google, Apple, HP, Samsung, Pearson, BenQ, and Teachmint, will present a diverse array of products that focus on the integration of AI, interactive learning technologies, and skill development solutions.

The event has also attracted several renowned brands from the education and skills sector, including Janatics, Roombr, IBO, ViewSonic, Leadership Boulevard (Lead School), SchoolNet, and Senses. Their participation highlights the global nature of DIDAC India and reinforces its status as the premier platform for showcasing cutting-edge educational products and solutions.

The International Education & Skills Summit (TIESS): Running concurrently with the exhibition, the International Education & Skills Summit (TIESS) continues to be a highlight of DIDAC India. This year marks the 14th edition of TIESS, where educational leaders from across the globe gather to discuss the latest trends, challenges, and opportunities facing the education sector. Senior management from universities, schools, and colleges, as well as policymakers and ministers, will engage in thought-provoking discussions on the role of technology in education, the need for updated pedagogies, and the importance of skill development in a rapidly changing world.

Key topics include the implementation of AI in classrooms, the impact of technological advancements on teaching methods, and the role of educational institutions in driving economic growth through knowledge-based societies. These discussions are crucial as India and other nations continue to refine their educational frameworks to meet the demands of a globalized world.

Interactive Learning at DIDAC Academy Workshops: In addition to the summit, DIDAC Academy will host a series of live interactive workshops designed to give educators and administrators hands-on experience with the latest tools and techniques in education. Organized by the India Didactics Association, these workshops provide a unique opportunity for participants to enhance their teaching and learning skills, explore new technological implementations, and formulate strategies for faculty development.

Workshops are led by leading companies and experts in the education field, focusing on crucial areas such as the effective use of AI in classrooms, innovative teaching methodologies, and future-ready skilling solutions. This hands-on learning is a key feature of DIDAC India, ensuring that educators leave with practical knowledge they can apply in their own institutions.

Supporting India’s Vision for Education: India’s education sector is undergoing a seismic shift, with the government introducing policies that prioritize innovation, skill development, and technology integration. The India Didactics Association, the country’s only national association for the education and skills fraternity, has played a vital role in this transformation. The IDA works with over 88,000 educators from 250 cities in India and collaborates with several national bodies such as the University Grants Commission (UGC), All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE), National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT), and the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE).

Through its partnerships with international education bodies and ministries from over 19 countries, the IDA ensures that India remains connected to global best practices. Its ongoing initiatives with organizations such as the Worlddidac Association and British Education Suppliers Association (BESA) further strengthen India’s position as a global leader in education and skills development.

A Must-Attend Event for the Education Community: As the DIDAC India 2024 event unfolds, it is clear that this year’s edition is set to redefine the future of education in India and beyond. With the participation of more than 300 firms and the showcasing of 5,000 cutting-edge products and technologies, the event offers attendees unparalleled opportunities to connect with global leaders, discover new innovations, and explore ways to implement transformative solutions in their own institutions.

For educators, policymakers, investors, and technology providers, DIDAC India is an essential platform for networking, collaboration, and learning.
