Haryana Govt to organise five roadshows

Chandigarh, December 20
The Haryana Government has decided to organize five roadshows in the metro cities of Delhi, Kolkata, Mumbai, Bengaluru and Hyderabad in the run-up to the ‘Happening Haryana Global Investors Summit-2016’ being held in Gurgaon on March 7 and 8, 2016, to project the state as a preferred investment destination, and attract both domestic and global investments.
          Stating this here today, Capt Abhimanyu, Industries Minister, said the Chief Minister, Mr. Manohar Lal, would flag off the first roadshow in New Delhi on December 22, 2015. Besides, Pravasi Haryana Divas is also being organised on March 9, 2016 to attract investments from such entrepreneurs from Haryana who have set up business ventures abroad and in other parts of the country and are doing exceedingly well in their respective fields.
          The main aim of organising the Summit is to mobilise investments into Haryana by leveraging the primary focus on ease of doing business and enhancing competitiveness of industry by reducing the cost of doing business and promoting skill development, entrepreneurship and innovation under the New Enterprises Promotion Policy-2015. The policy also aims at uniform and balanced industrial growth with emphasis on medium and small enterprises to boost job creation in the state.
          The Pravasi Haryana Divas has been planned to apprise the NRIs of the huge investment potential Haryana has, and the vast scope the state offers for investment in varied fields, and draw them to invest here. The state offers ample opportunities of  investment preferably in the areas of  food processing, pharma, Information Technology, auto, defense production, aerospace, bio-technology, healthcare, medical education, skill development, Digital India and automotive. Besides, under the Chief Minister’s Swa-prerit Adarsh Gram Yojana on the pattern of Saansad Adarsh Gram Yojana, the NRIs of Haryana origin and renowned industrialists of the country would also be wooed to develop their native villages. With the state government playing the facilitator through ease-of-doing business under the new industrial policy, Haryana offers a fertile ground for the seeds of industry to germinate and grow into blossoms of rewarding returns, Capt Abhimanyu added.
          During the visit of an official-cum-business delegation led by the Chief Minister to America and Canada in August, 2015, to attract foreign investment, the state government signed five Memorandum of Understanding with Google for Digital India, Cisco for Smart City, United Technology for Skill Development, world’s leading company Applied Materials Inc for solar energy, Algonquin College of Applied Arts and Technology for cooperation in Medicare, healthcare and public health. Besides USA and Canada, opportunities to attract investment in Haryana from other countries would also be extensively explored during the Summit, Capt Abhimanyu added.
