    Views and Opinions

    IIR started with The Talk of Town City events by Surfaces Reporter and The Ply Reporter so most of the opinions are combined for both of them.

    Along with the great gathering and relevant footfall, the sessions by Pragathji are eye-openers to the industry. My experience is fantastic at MATECIA

    I think there is a big bridge that one needs to cross – between getting a great idea, getting suggestions and executing it. In this country execution sometimes proves to be more difficult, we find battles about doing business every day. So I really want to give Vertica and her team a huge round of applause for having executed this event so well.

It is much, much better organized… with great representation from architects & designers and material industry. I am happy to be in this event and we received Good feedback.”

    “MATECIA is one of the best exhibitions we ever had. The footfall for today, I haven’t seen anywhere in India. Excellent Event and Conference!”

    “In this age and time, the biggest thing an editorial platform can do – is actually become the base and pave way for design discourse. I am very happy to see Surfaces Reporter’s Initiative ‘The Talk of Town’ Series across multiple cities in India. By generating that kind of engagement within the architectural design community they are creating platforms that foster thought-provoking discussions. At the end of the day, design only grows as much as the discourse for it grows.”

    “I found INDIA INTERIOR RETAILING event and SRPR THE TALK OF TOWN resourceful and worth to me. I listened to a few eminent personalities but was deeply impressed by the sessions of Vertica Dvivedi and Niraj Shah. Both were very relevant and practical to the discussion. This was the only event which had the emphasis of Practical touch I ever attended. I took many positives of this and surely will help us to grow.”

    “Online retail is not a challenge but it is an opportunity to leap into the next bigger thing. Just think that when your retail shop is available on Google, on the first click the consumer gets a response and that first touch point creates a business. With the prompt response, deal is done. We will have to evolve with the change and make our customer services best.”

    Mr Siddharth H K

    “There has been a complete transformation in showroom looks and their working style because with time they have understood how to take care of the consumer and adapt to the product. They are now sharing the experience with the end user.”
