"While attracting investments is one of the objectives of Emerging Kerala -2012, our overall vision for this summit is much wider," Chandy said in a statement today.
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh is scheduled to open the three-day event on September 12.
"We are bringing together some of the best thinkers, leaders and policy makers from around the world to one platform. It is going to provide us with an opportunity to obtain valuable ideas, concepts and strategies that can guide us in the future", he said.
CPI(M)-led LDF opposition, however, has hinted at boycotting the event dubbing it as a move to sell out the natural assets and upset its land reform legislation.
