2027 Global Summit in Hyderabad, India:
Registration Opens January 2026
A Message from ICCA Chairman M. L. Agarwal
Dear Esteemed Colleagues and Global Industry Partners,
It is with great excitement that I announce a historic milestone for ICCA: for the first time, we will convene in India to host the biennial ICCA Global Summit, taking place 11, 12 & 13 January 2027, in the vibrant city of Hyderabad, hosted by the Association of Corrugated Case of Telangana (ACCT).
This landmark event reflects our strategic commitment to expanding ICCA’s global presence into one of the world’s most dynamic and rapidly growing markets. The summit will serve as a catalyst for advancing the corrugated packaging industry by delivering cutting-edge insights on products, emerging challenges, and transformative resources.
In alignment with ICCA’s mission, we will:
• Empower regional associations through collaborative initiatives
• Share vital statistical forecasts to guide strategic planning
• Foster cross-border dialogue to address shared challenges
• Champion innovation that transcends individual capabilities
Valued at USD 7.8 billion in 2024, it is projected to reach USD 18.6 billion by 2033, growing at a robust CAGR of 9.6% (IMARC Group). With the rise of e-commerce and increasing demand for sustainable solutions, India is emerging as a global hub for eco-friendly packaging and supply chain innovation.
It is encouraging that ACCT/FCBM teams are energized and ready to go full throttle with promotions of very ambitious hosting of triple events. We count on your enthusiastic support to make
this a landmark event. The summit will feature three major components:
• ICCA Global Summit 2027 – Target: 300 delegates
• FCBM Corrupack Summit 2027 – Target: 1500 delegates
• Corrupack EXPO 2027 – Target: 250–300 exhibitors & 5000 visitors
Building on our successful engagements across Asia—including Japan—we warmly invite the global corrugated community of producers, suppliers, innovators and buyers to join the Summits in Hyderabad. Together, let’s shape a more sustainable, resilient future for our industry.
Together, we elevate.
Warm Regards,
M. L. Agarwal
Chairman
