This is expected to triple by 2020 with a compound annual growth rate of 26%. We are hoping that combined efforts of the Government, the industrial sector and various training institutes, industrial robotics can grow in India steadily and put the country on a fast track to unprecedented progress and development,” said Mr Raj Manek, Executive Director and Board Member of Messe Frankfurt Asia Holding Ltd.
