“Over the years, Gujarat has earned the identity of being the growth-engine of India. With its progressive policies, business-friendly environment and pro-people approach, Gujarat has emerged as a model of inclusive and sustainable development. On the foundations of proactive governance, today Gujarat has positioned itself as a globally preferred destination for investment and business. Going beyond welcoming investments, Gujarat strives to develop an enabling ecosystem through sharing of knowledge, technology, experience, skills and values. In this process, we intend to leverage the power of global gathering to build mutually enriching relationships. With this vision, we, at Gujarat, are committed to contribute in re-defining India's success story and put our country on high-growth trajectory.”
