The Pragati Maidan Complex or the India Trade Promotion Organization (ITPO) Complex, Delhi that will host India’s G20 leaders meetings in September 2023, has undergone a jaw-dropping transformation. The site that has been under construction and redevelopment work since 2017 by the state-owned construction company NBCC Ltd is said to compete with structures like the Hannover Exhibition Centre in Germany and the National Exhibition and Convention Center (NECC) in Shanghai. The redevelopment of the ITPO Complex includes the transformation of the Integrated Exhibition-cum-Convention Centre (IECC) into a modern complex. It aims to strengthen the Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions (MICE) sector in India. Spread over a total area of 123 acres, ITPO Complex is the largest MICE venue in the country. The Level 3 of the IECC boasts a seating capacity of 7,000, which is more than the 5,500 capacity of Sydney Opera House in Australia. It also features an amphitheater with a seating capacity of 3,000 and is ideal for hosting entertainment events and cultural shows. With the space and capacity to hold upto 5,500 vehicles, it also has a huge parking space.
