Gujarat delegation in Birmingham
A delegation from Gujarat toured Birmingham this week to promote India’s westernmost state as an investment destination and to learn more about the West Midlands region, in a bid to develop a bilateral relationship with the UK. The group, comprising 15 Gujarati business leaders from backgrounds
including financial services, life sciences and advanced manufacturing, explored key attractions and areas in Birmingham such as the Jewellery Quarter, Digbeth and Snowhill and found out about the city’s key business sectors.
The delegation was also in the city to promote Vibrant Gujarat, an international investment summit that takes place in India every two years. The summit was established in 2003 to increase investment in Gujarat and has now become a forum for companies around the world to exchange ideas, network and explore potential business opportunities.
B C Pradhan, Consulate General of India, who worked with inward investment agency Business Birmingham to organise the visit, said: 'The day provided a valuable opportunity to continue our concentrated and co-ordinated efforts to promote economic relationships and establish further ties between Birmingham, the UK and India. It allowed the delegation not only to find out more about Birmingham’s history and culture, but also its key sectors including textiles, renewable energy and manufacturing.'
