When events and tourism come together, the impact goes far beyond a single gathering.

It creates movement across cities, generates visibility for destinations, and opens new opportunities for businesses at every level.

Across Karnataka, we are beginning to see this shift.

Events are not just being hosted—they are becoming reasons for people to travel, explore, and experience new locations.

This is where KEMA plays a critical role.

By aligning the event ecosystem with tourism potential, KEMA is helping:
•⁠ Bring outside planners into Karnataka
• Create destination-driven experiences
• Generate opportunities for local members
• Support growth across multiple cities

For members, this means access to a wider market, stronger collaborations, and larger-scale opportunities.

For the state, it means a stronger position on the national and global map.

When we grow together, every city becomes a destination.

We are grateful to JW Marriott – Vittal Mallya Road Bangalore, for hosting the KEMA Executive Committee Meeting on 1st May 2026 with such warmth, hospitality, and excellence.

Strong conversations, collaborative vision, and shared commitment continue to shape the future of Karnataka’s event industry.

The meeting brought together members of the KEMA Executive Committee to discuss industry growth, future initiatives, ecosystem development, and the road ahead for Karnataka’s evolving event landscape.

Thank you for being part of the journey and supporting an ecosystem that brings together people, experiences, and opportunities.

Together, we continue building stronger connections and stronger possibilities.

Karnataka has always been at the heart of India’s event industry, a space where creativity, scale, and ex*****on come together seamlessly.

Today, that identity is evolving into something even more powerful.

With a growing ecosystem of planners, creators, venues, artists, and partners, Karnataka is steadily positioning itself not just as a national leader but as a destination for global events.
This growth is not driven by a single entity.

It is being shaped by a collective effort, by professionals who are building, collaborating, and pushing the industry forward together.

KEMA exists at the center of this movement. By bringing the industry onto one platform, KEMA is helping create alignment, visibility, and opportunity for every member who is part of this journey.
