Addressing the India Global Partnership programme organised by the International Business and Commerce Chamber of India (IBCCI) in the national capital, Gupta said India is emerging as a global hub for trade, investment, manufacturing, technology and innovation.

Highlighting the global potential of Himachal Pradesh's apples, organic products, Kangra paintings, Kullu-Kinnauri shawls and Chamba Rumals, the Governor emphasised the need for improved packaging, branding and digital marketing to expand their reach in international markets.
He also urged IBCCI to connect women entrepreneurs, startups and micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) with international markets and investment opportunities.
The programme, organised by IBCCI, was themed 'Women Entrepreneurship and Startups for Viksit Bharat 2047'.
Representatives from several countries, including Brazil, South Africa, Fiji, Mongolia, Suriname and Guyana, participated in the event.UNI RVS AAB
