ITA cements Indo-Kiwi relations at Happening Haryana

Global CEOs, who’s who of India Inc. descend in Gurgaon, Haryana to support the state’s maiden initiative. Amongst them were India Trade Alliance’s Chairman Giri Gupta and General Secretary Sunil Kaushal and Member of Parliament Mr Kanwaljit Singh Bakshi, who were invited by the Chief Minister of Haryana. ITA was instrumental in New Zealand securing the country partnership status with the Happening Haryana Summit on March 7 and 8, thus cementing the Indo-Kiwi business relations even further.

The Haryana government’s first-ever concerted effort to attract global investors into the state took off in great style with industrialists pledging more than 4.5 times the targeted amount of new investments.

The importance of Haryana in the country’s economy was evident by the presence of key decision makers such as Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley, Railways Minister Suresh Prabhu, Union Urban Development Minister Venkaiah Naidu, and Minister of State for Petroleum Shri Dharmendra Pradhan on the dais.

Corporate dignitaries who spoke included Godrej Group chairman Adi Godrej, DLF executive vice chairman Rajiv Singh, Dalian Wanda Group chairman Wang Jianlin, Bharti Enterprises chairman Sunil Bharti Mittal, ITC chairman Y C Deveshwar, Adani Group chairman Gautam Adani, HeroMotoCorp chairman Pawan Munjal, Juniper Networks vice chairman Pradeep Sindhu, Maruti Suzuki chairman R C Bhargava, Essel Group chairman Subhash Chandra, Fortis Healthcare executive chairman Malvinder Monhan Singh, Medanta chairman Naresh Trehan, Tractors India chairman Sumit Mazumder, CII director general Chandrajit Banerjee, Punjab National Bank CEO Usha Ananthasubramanian, Sun Pharmaceuticals managing director Dilip Shanghvi,.

Almost all the corporate chiefs complimented the Haryana government and its chief minister for creating a conducive environment for doing business. The focus areas of the summit include: Agro based and Food Processing, Automotive Industry, Aerospace and Defence, IT/ITeS & ESDM, Footwear & Accessories, Pharmaceuticals & Chemicals, Renewable Energy and Textiles.

Speaking at the Partner Country session, the New Zealand High Commissioner Grahame Morton emphasised on New Zealand’s expertise in agriculture and skills development. “New Zealand businesses are ready to help Haryana farmers to increase productivity in agriculture and dairy. Haryana needs to look from the investors’ point of view too. They seek ease of doing business and road blocks at every step deter investors and business partners from making the necessary steps to invest.”

There were further exciting developments at this visit by the ITA delegation that seem all geared up to deliver on what they promise.
