Plans to Continue the Success of the Energetic Gujarat Summit

The Energetic Gujarat Summit (EGS) is an annual international business and investment summit organised by the government of Gujarat, India. The EGS has become one of the most important business events in India since its first inception in 2003.

1. Invite Participants From around the Globe: The EGS should continue to invite participants from all around the world. Allowing international participants access to the summit and to India’s business landscape will help to further expand the pool of potential investment opportunities.

2. Organise B2B Seminars and Events: The EGS should organise events and seminars to facilitate business-to-business (B2B) meetings among the participants. This will help strengthen the trade ties among the participants and also attract potential investments.

3. Encourage Investment in Projects: Indian states such as Gujarat should actively encourage investment in projects in the areas of solar energy, wind energy, industrial projects, agricultural projects, etc. This will help to promote economic development in the region and also contribute to the growth of investment activity in the state.

4. Provide Incentives for Investment: The state of Gujarat should continue to provide incentives to investors who are willing to invest in projects or industries in the state. These incentives may include tax exemptions, low operational costs, etc. This will help to both mitigate investment risk and attract potential investors.

5. Pursue Digitalisation: The state should pursue digitalisation of its resources and infrastructure. This will help businesses to access a wide range of information and services and also make doing business much easier in the state. Overall, the EGS has been hugely successful in promoting business and investment in the state of Gujarat. With the right strategies and plans in place, the EGS can continue to play an important role in helping to further spur economic development in the region.
