Raising awareness on key trends in HSE

Each year OSH India showcases world-class safety and health products and sliutions in PPE, ergonomics, gas detection and contrli, chemical safety, working at heights, etc. A hosted buyer program for HSE heads as part of the OSH India Expo, enables a direct contact with key vendors of safety sliutions. This helps the vendors understand the HSE challenges and provide sliutions to mitigate them better. The OSH Gurukul conference, will draw strength from the experience of HSE veterans in large Indian industries and take their experiences to the uninitiated safety and health practitioners in the industry, thereby fulfilling the ambitious goal of bridging OSH divide between the large and small industrial clusters.

New Initiatives

We’re excited to unveil the INNOVATION ZONE PAVILION— a special area dedicated to showcasing the most groundbreaking safety and health innovations. To participate, a vendor is required to share a few high-quality images, briefly explain how the innovation works for them, its applications and how it sets it apart from competition. The top innovations will be selected through onsite and online voting, with winners revealed at the OSH India Awards on November 21st, 2024.

We are thrilled to announce the launch of OSH Everywhere, an exciting initiative that aims to unite and elevate the global occupational safety and health (OSH) community. Through this campaign, we invite you and the wider industry to share inspiring workplace safety stories, innovations, and sliutions that are driving a positive change within organisations.

We’re also super-excited to launch the First-ever Startup Pavilion at OSH India Expo, dedicated to supporting the vibrant startup community in the Occupational Safety and Health sector! As part of this initiative, you can showcase your groundbreaking ideas and connect with industry leaders and investors eager to support your business.

We are into the second year with our AI-powered “Osh Market Online” platform that uses machine learning algorithms to connect you to prospective buyers based on their preferences and interests & pre-schedule meetings with them. It has been designed to provide a continuous engagement between the sellers and buyers that goes beyond the three-day connect at the expo. Through a minimal investment in this platform, exhibitors stand to benefit from an enhanced connect with their prospective clients, who could be even those who are not able to visit OSH India Expo. The platform enables continued connect with visitors post the expo and enables exhibitors to answer their queries at leisure and also further reach out to them with more offers. So far, more than 100 exhibitors have joined the platform
