Gandhinagar : The US-India Strategic Partnership Forum (USISPF) announced its association as partner organization with the Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit 2024 from January 10th to 12th, 2024, in Gandhinagar.
USISPF will lead a delegation comprising over 35 Fortune American companies, including Salesforce, Abbott, Blackstone, HSBC, UPS, Micron, Cisco, SHRM and others. These companies also have plans to increase their investments in Gujarat. The delegation will be led by Mr. Lal Karsanbhai, President and CEO of Emerson and co-led by USISPF President & CEO Dr. Mukesh Aghi.
The focus areas include leveraging India’s burgeoning momentum in the hi-tech manufacturing space, particularly in avenues of semiconductors and chip manufacturing, as well as critical areas of energy transition, chemicals and industrial manufacturing, aerospace and defence.
The companies are also eagerly exploring opportunities to build on the flagship Gujarat International Finance Tec-City (GIFT) City’s economic landscape.
As part of our engagement at the summit, USISPF will host two insightful panel discussions on January 11 on the following themes:
US-India Innovation Handshake: Accelerating the Start-Up Ecosystem In partnership with iCreate, this panel will explore avenues to catalyze innovation and foster collaboration in the vibrant startup ecosystem of both countries.
US-India Partnership: Opportunities for Manufacturing and Global Value Chains This panel will delve into the vast opportunities for collaboration in manufacturing and global value chains, showcasing the potential for growth and mutual benefit.
Dr. Mukesh Aghi, President and CEO of USISPF, said, “It’s wonderful to be back in Gujarat and an honor for us at USISPF to lead a delegation of American companies to invest and contribute to the development of Gujarat, a state with a strong entrepreneurial spirit. Vibrant Gujarat Summit is a flagship program of the Government of Gujarat, and an investor summit whose success was personally spearheaded by Prime Minister Modi during his Chief Ministerial days and it’s commendable how far the summit has come in little over two decades. The tenth edition accentuates the development and socio-economic growth in the western Indian state that epitomizes India’s entrepreneurial spirit and can-do attitude. Today, India is the fifth-largest economy and the fastest-growing major economy in the world, as investors remain optimistic about India’s growth at a time of global headwinds and de-risking supply chains.”
Mr. Lal Karsanbhai, President and CEO of Emerson, said, “I am honored to lead this distinguished delegation from the United States to the Vibrant Gujarat summit. Gujarat has emerged as a beacon of economic growth and innovation, and it is a privilege to witness firsthand the collaborative opportunities that exist between our nations. As we engage in discussions and explore partnerships, we look forward to fostering stronger ties that will not only benefit our businesses but also contribute to the global economic landscape.”
On January 9, USISPF will hold a leadership reception celebrating the US-Gujarat partnership. The delegation will also participate in interactions with senior ministers and bureaucrats from the Government of Gujarat and the Government of India.
The participation of American companies will strengthen economic cooperation with the state of Gujarat and further deepen the US-India strategic and bilateral partnership.
USISPF remains committed to strengthening the economic ties between the United States and India, and our participation in the Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit 2024 reflects our dedication to fostering meaningful partnerships and driving innovation in both nations, especially with deeper engagement at the state level.
