Mumbai to Host Second ORGATEC India Trade Platform as Office Space Demand Hits Record High

Event Details

India's dedicated workplace design and technology platform, ORGATEC India 2026, will return for its second edition in Mumbai from 19 to 19-21 November 2026 at the Jio World Convention Centre in BKC.

Market Growth

This announcement comes as the country's office market records its strongest-ever half-year of space absorption, with India recording 45.5 million square feet of office space absorption in the first half of 2026. Demand is driven by Global Capability Centers, flexible workspace operators, and large domestic occupiers. A CBRE survey shows that 77% of occupiers expect their office portfolios to expand over the next two years.

WorkNXT Theme

The 2026 event features the theme 'WorkNXT - Design, Technology And Experiences,' organizing the workplace journey into six connected stages: design, specify, procure, build, operate, and experience. Manoj Nandiot, Portfolio Director at Koelnmesse Pvt. Ltd., stated that the platform aims to move the workplace conversation beyond individual products and square footage to look at the workspace as one connected journey. Participating brands include Haworth, Kokuyo, Univicoustic, Interio by Godrej, Featherlite, and Nilkamal Edge.

Context

Trade platforms like this bring fragmented parts of major projects together so that builders, designers, and tech providers can coordinate complex office setups more efficiently. Large corporate real estate expansions in India are closely tied to the growth of technology hubs and service centers across major metropolitan areas.
