India ranks among the fastest growing global economic markets worldwide, with cyber security becoming increasingly important. To address this development, Media Fusion LLC – a Dubai and India-based tradeshow organiser – and heise medien have entered into a partnership for the “CyberSec India Expo” today. The exhibition and conference is scheduled to take place in Mumbai on 11th and 12th June 2025, aiming to attract more than 5,000 trade visitors with 150+ exhibitorsand to establish itself as the leading IT security event in the APAC region.

“With secIT by heise, we have established an extremely successful and steadily growing conference-exhibition in the GSA region. We will bring our experience and connections with IT security providers and IT security professionals to the partnership with Media Fusion,” explains Jörg Mühle, Member of Management Board, heise medien. “The focus will be on supporting exhibitor acquisition and targeted communication with potential participants.”

The cybersecurity market is a prime example—it has grown from $1.98 billion in 2019 to $6 billion in 2023, with a phenomenal CAGR of over 30%. Reports (Data Security Council of India) suggests that by 2028, India is projected to contribute 5% of the global cybersecurity market, cementing its role as a key player on the global stage. For us at Media Fusion, expanding to Mumbai in 2023 was a natural step and the partnership with heise medien has only gone on to strengthen our presence here.”

At this early stage of CyberSec India Expo, Forcepoint has already signed on as the Gold Sponsor, and there is more interest for the show from several Indian and international companies. Their commitment highlights the strong momentum the show has already gained and the waves it is making amongst the cybersecurity community.
