Grown from 25 booth units in 1988 to more than 800 booth units at present, it is used  extensively as a launch pad for new products.

The Inside Outside Mega Show is the integration of three of the industry’s leading shows:

INTEX: the Indian industry’s best interior show, with a reputation for bringing in the country’s leading architects, designers and decorators.

BUILDMAT: the annual event for the construction and building industries, attended not only by industry professionals, but also government officials connected with the industry, such as town planners and representatives of municipal bodies.

FURNITURE & FURNISHINGS: a show that caters to interior designers, furniture dealers, exporters and home makers.

The integration of the three shows and the subsequent expansion of its reach has resulted in establishing the most comprehensive trade fair that cannot be missed by any business house however big or small.  The flagship production of Business India Exhibitions, it is the only trade show that has regularly expanded its reach by inducting new exhibition centers since its inception in 1988.  2009 saw the debut of Lucknow into its annual schedule.   

Globalization is seeing a rapid growth in international interest and participation in IOMS, either directly or through dealers. Countries such as Italy, Japan, Canada, Malaysia Singapore and UAE have regularly participated in the Inside Outside Mega Show. Apart from its annual effort to reach new cities and and new venues, the  Inside Outside Mega Shows had a series of Panel discussions as the curtain raisers to the show. The 2009-10 season saw 11 events in 11 cities (for details see “What’s New?”)
