Delegates from 21 countries including the US, Australia, Japan, Singapore, the UK, Germany and Finland will take part in the meet, MP Trade and Investment Facilitation Corporation (TRIFAC) Managing Director Arun Kumar Bhatt told PTI.

Nearly 2,200 investors from the country and abroad will participate in 'Global Investors Meet', said officials associated with the event.

Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan yesterday reviewed the preparations in Indore. He will hold meetings with entrepreneurs on all the three days.

A short film 'Advantage Madhya Pradesh' focusing on the state will also be screened on the occasion.

"The major focus of the Global Investors Meet will be on those industries which can generate maximum employment for the people of the state," Bhatt said.

 

"The focus will be on warehousing and logistics, health, education, skill development, infrastructure, renewable energy sources and on micro, small and medium enterprises to generate employment for people," Bhatt said.

He said the event would definitely facilitate more investments in the state than the last meet.

On the results achieved so far from the earlier investors meet in the state, he said, "Out of the total MoUs inked, 45-50 per cent of the investment is at different stages of implementation with a number of units already becoming functional." MORE
