Confederation of Indian Industry, in partnership with Ministry of External Affairs, Government of India are organising the Indo - ASEAN Business Summit and Expo: Act East Policy in the Post Covid World from 7- 8 October 2021, over a virtual Platform.

Since its start about more than a decade ago, the partnership between India and the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) has been developing at quite a fast pace.

India's relationship with ASEAN is a key pillar of our foreign diplomacy and the foundation of India’s Act East Policy. Economic cooperation between the ASEAN countries have been witnessing a dramatic increase over the years. The ASEAN economy is projected to grow by over 5% per year and become the fourth largest economic block in the world by 2050.

CII strongly believes that this is time for India and ASEAN countries to reaffirm India’s Act East Policy for a cohesive, responsive, and prosperous ASEAN.

The objective of the Summit is to open the opportunities for deepening trade and commerce; paving the way for investments in India and ASEAN countries; promote business collaborations and to deepen the engagement between the industries of the region.

Dr. S Jaishankar, Hon’ble Minister of External Affairs, Government of India has agreed to be the Chief Guest at the Inaugural Session of the Summit on 7 October 2021. Other senior Ministers from India and abroad are also expected to participate in the two-day event.
