Real estate is an industry where success is often measured by fleeting metrics, Maxpo Exhibitions has redefined what it means to lead. This company has not only bridged the gap between Indian real estate and international investors but has also set new and unparalleled standards in the exhibition industry. With over USD 350 million in revenue generated over two decades, Maxpo Exhibitions stands as a beacon of innovation and excellence.
At the heart of this is M Inayath Sait, a man whose career trajectory mirrors the meteoric rise of Maxpo Exhibitions. Starting as an investment banker, Sait’s acute understanding of financial markets and investment strategies laid a solid foundation for his entrepreneurial journey.
According to the UFI Global Barometer, the exhibition industry witnessed a full recovery in 2023, with revenues reaching comparable levels to 2019. The outlook for 2024 is highly positive, with revenues expected to grow by an average of 15%. This growth is fueled by increased economic activity, lifted pandemic restrictions, and technological advancements that enhance the attendee experience.
Maxpo Exhibitions has carved a niche as the first company to take Indian real estate exhibitions to the global stage. By organising prestigious events such as the India Property Show in Dubai, Singapore, and the United States, Maxpo has opened new avenues for developers to connect with NRI buyers and investors.
His vision was clear from the outset: to create a platform that would showcase Indian real estate to the world and also attract significant NRI investments. His approach has been both innovative and inclusive, ensuring that Maxpo’s exhibitions cater to the diverse needs of investors and developers alike.
“At Maxpo Exhibitions, we are revolutionising the way the world connects with Indian real estate. Our mission is to create unparalleled opportunities for growth and innovation, setting new benchmarks in the global exhibition industry. We are not just showcasing properties; we are building bridges to a prosperous future.” – M Inayath Sait, Founder and CEO of Maxpo Exhibitions.
They've also made strides in areas like medical supplies, digital signage, IoT, and higher education.
Looking Ahead With The Industry
Maxpo Exhibitions is on the cusp of another transformative phase with its planned IPO in 2027. This strategic move is expected to further strengthen its market position and financial stability.
Additionally, the launch of a new Proptech venture this August promises to revolutionise the entire hunt for property scene and transactions, making them more efficient and user-friendly. This platform, akin to real estate advertising, will leverage cutting-edge technology to streamline processes and enhance user experience.
Maxpo and Inayath Sait have expanded their footprint across various industries. Inayath Sait’s portfolio includes ventures in food processing, hospitality, and media. Notably, he owns a chain of restaurants in Dubai and has facilitated joint ventures with international radio stations, amplifying their reach and impact.

Maxpo Exhibitions stands as a leader in the trade show and exhibition industry, offering tailored experiences that cater to the unique needs of each client. The company organises a wide range of events, from large-scale trade shows to specialised conferences and award ceremonies.
Maxpo Exhibitions is dedicated to increasing NRI sales, providing unmatched ROI to exhibitors, and expanding its footprint in the Indian market. The company’s vision is to drive growth and create value for all stakeholders, ensuring sustainable success on the global stage.
