InfraConex aims to create an experience for all the industry stakeholders such as construction equipment compes, distributors, policy makers, government, financial institutions, associations, orgzations, forums, and alliances related to construction equipment market. The expo will also help the MSME compes from the construction sector to connect with the financial institutions to better understand the government policies of funding MSME.
