World Association for Small and Medium Enterprises (WASME), in collaboration with Udan Media Communications Pvt. Ltd.

Recognised as one of Asia’s most dynamic platforms for electric mobility, the 2nd edition of Ride Asia EV 2026 will be held from 24–26 April 2026 at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi.
This year’s initiative aims to foster technical and financial collaborations, including joint assembly and manufacturing ventures, by bringing together Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) from Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) with their Indian counterparts—creating new avenues for global partnerships and market expansion.

The three-day expo, supported by key Government of India ministries and organisations ICAT, NITI Ayog, will host a diverse set of industry players from across countries, including Tanzania, Uganda, Botswana, Angola, Zambia, Ghana, Suriname, China, Taiwan Bangladesh, Nepal and many others.

- Pre-scheduled B2B meetings with verified global buyers
- Opportunities for financial and technology collaborations with MSMEs from different continents including Africa, Asia and LAC across e-mobility value chain
- Expansion into high-growth emerging markets

A major highlight of the event is a two-day International Conference which brings together in depth insights from global policymakers, industry leaders, and experts from Ministry of Heavy Industries, Ministry of Road, Transport and Highways, MeitY, ICAT, Ashok Leyland and many more to deliberate on the role of MSMEs in the evolving EV ecosystem, policy frameworks and future mobility trends.
Strengthening MSMEs in the EV Ecosystem
As India accelerates its push towards electric mobility, MSMEs are expected to play a pivotal role in manufacturing, supply chains, and innovation. Ride Asia EV 2026 seeks to empower these enterprises by providing direct access to global markets, investors, and advanced technologies.
A spokesperson from WASME stated: “Ride Asia EV 2026 is more than an exhibition—it is a gateway for MSMEs to integrate into the global EV value chain. By fostering collaboration between industry, government, and innovators, we aim to create sustainable growth opportunities and position India as a global EV powerhouse.”
