Among the key speakers at the Expo will be The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews's Asia Pacific Director Dominic Wall and Ladies European Tour (LET) development director Mike Round.

Commenting on the development, acting president and patron of GIA Aakash Ohri said: "It gives me great pleasure in welcoming global leaders of the golf industry as well as all other patrons and delegates to the sixth edition of the India Golf Expo 2017. It is an event which has over the years captured the imagination of golf enthusiasts not only in the booming South Asia region, but across the Asian continent and the world."
