India–Norway Focus on Energy & Investment Ties

March 6, 2026 - World Trade Center Mumbai, in association with the All India Association of Industries (AIAI)and the Royal Norwegian Consulate General in Mumbai, successfully organized an International Trade Dialogue with Norway. This event brought together government representatives, industry leaders, and trade stakeholders to explore opportunities for strengthening India–Norway economic cooperation, particularly in sustainable energy, maritime innovation, and green technologies. The event was attended by H.E. Ms. Monica Nagelgaard, Consul General, Royal Norwegian Consulate General, Mumbai, reflecting the importance of India–Norway bilateral engagement. Mr. Fredrik Bjerke Abdelmaguid, Deputy Consul General, Royal Norwegian Consulate General, Mumbai, highlighted “Norway is keen to deepen economic engagement with India and expand cooperation across clean energy, sustainable maritime solutions, and innovation-driven sectors.” “The complementarities between Norwegian technological expertise and India’s growing industrial and entrepreneurial ecosystem align strongly with the India–EFTA TEPA framework. The USD 100 billion investment commitment under EFTA over the next 15 years represents a significant boost to bilateral cooperation.” added Mr. Fredrik Dr. Vijay Kalantri, Chairman, World Trade Center Mumbai and President, All India Association of Industries, said, “With India aiming to achieve Net Zero emissions by 2070 and targeting 500 GW of non-fossil fuel energy capacity by 2030, partnerships with countries like Norway, which are global technological leaders play a key role. Beyond clean energy, there is also significant potential for cooperation in sectors such as pharmaceuticals, maritime equipment, shipping technologies, and chemicals, where both countries can leverage their complementary strengths to expand trade and industrial collaboration.” Dr. Kalantri added, “Bilateral trade between India and Norway has crossed USD 1.2 billion, and with the India–EFTA Trade and Economic Partnership Agreement (TEPA), which came into effect after nearly 16 years of negotiations, there exists strong potential to significantly double the trade in the coming years.” Ms. Reena R Rao, General Manager, Mahatma Phule Renewable Energy and Infrastructure Technology Limited (MAHAPREIT), a subsidiary of MPBCDC, Government of Maharashtra, said “MAHAPREIT plays a vital role in promoting solar energy, green technologies, and inclusive infrastructure development to drive socio-economic empowerment. She further highlighted MAHAPREIT’s core verticals, including renewable energy and electric vehicles, agro-processing and biofuels, infrastructure and data centre development, as well as CSR-led initiatives, aimed at fostering sustainable and inclusive growth.” “MAHAPREIT continues to serve as a key facilitator in aligning Maharashtra’s clean energy ambitions with community-led development through strategic partnerships and innovative projects.” added Ms. Reena Mr. Azam Ali Khan, Senior Energy Advisor for India, NORWEP (Norwegian Energy Partners), said “There are emerging opportunities for collaboration in offshore energy, green transition technologies, and sustainable industrial practices. Strengthening partnerships between Norwegian companies and Indian enterprises, particularly MSMEs, can accelerate the adoption of energy-efficient solutions and contribute meaningfully toward achieving global climate goals.” The session also included an interactive Q&A session, enabling participants to engage directly with speakers and discuss practical pathways for enhancing bilateral trade, investment, and technology cooperation. The programme concluded with a Vote of Thanks deliveredby Capt. Somesh Batra, Vice Chairman, World Trade Center Mumbai, who acknowledged the Norwegian delegation and participants for contributing to a meaningful exchange of ideas and reaffirmed WTC Mumbai’s commitment to promoting international trade dialogue and economic collaboration.

WTC Mumbai Strengthens Sri Lanka Trade Links

February 17, 2026 - World Trade Center Mumbai, in association with the All India Association of Industries (AIAI), hosted a business delegation from Sri Lanka to strengthen bilateral trade, investment cooperation, and industry partnerships between the two countries. The programme focused on enhancing commercial engagement across key sectors including textiles and apparel, handicrafts, lifestyle products, wellness industries, infrastructure, tourism, and IT services. The interaction facilitated over 300 B2B meetings between Indian and Sri Lankan companies, highlighting new opportunities for collaboration, market access, and supply chain integration Ms. Shirani Ariyarathne, Consul (commercial), Consulate General of Sri Lanka, said “India and Sri Lanka share a deep-rooted relationship that goes back millennia. We already have a Free Trade Agreement in goods, and we are now looking to expand cooperation through a Free Trade Agreement in services, which will further strengthen our economic integration. There are significant opportunities in tourism, textiles, automobiles, infrastructure development, and IT, and we are also exploring the further expansion of industrial zones to facilitate greater business engagement. With Sri Lanka offering preferential market access and a rapidly growing economy, the prospects for enhanced bilateral collaboration are extremely promising.” Dr. Vijay Kalantri, Chairman, World Trade Center Mumbai and President, All India Association of Industries, said “Since the Free Trade Agreement, India and Sri Lanka have come a long way in strengthening their economic partnership. Bilateral merchandise trade between the two countries has crossed USD 6 billion in FY 2024–25, and we expect this to double over the next five years. With nearly 4,000 products enjoying tariff concessions, there is significant scope to expand trade beyond traditional sectors. In this evolving geopolitical environment, strengthening regional partnerships is essential to ensure economic resilience and shared prosperity.” “There is high potential for collaboration in sectors such as textiles and apparel, pharmaceuticals, automobiles, agriculture and food processing, IT and digital services, renewable energy, and tourism. India remains one of the largest contributors to foreign direct Investment in Sri Lanka, reflecting strong business confidence and the long-term potential of the bilateral partnership. We are proud to be hosting our sixth delegation from Sri Lanka in the past six months, which reiterates the growing momentum in India–Sri Lanka engagement,” added Dr. Kalantri. Mrs. Mangala Madhuwanthi, Export Development Board Sri Lanka, said “The Sri Lanka Export Development Board plays a vital role in promoting the country’s export sector, with total exports exceeding USD 17.3 billion last year, including USD 13.6 billion in merchandise trade, these exports contribute nearly 19% to GDP. The delegation visiting today represents this diversity with companies from lifestyle, leather, wellness, renewable paper, handicrafts, and traditional batik products, and creative industry products showcasing Sri Lanka’s rich heritage and export capabilities”. The programme concluded with a Vote of Thanks by Capt. Somesh Batra, Vice Chairman, World Trade Center Mumbai, who expressed appreciation to the visiting delegation and participants for contributing to meaningful dialogue and strengthening economic bridges between India and Sri Lanka. He added that by partnering with Sri Lankan enterprises, Indian companies can leverage complementary strengths and access wider regional markets. Read More

Urban Heat Resilience Dialogue at WTC Mumbai

February 16, 2026 - World Trade Center Mumbai, in association with Climate Trends, hosted a high-level roundtable on “Urban Heat Stress and Its Growing Impact on India’s Economic Sectors and Public Health” as part of Mumbai Climate Week (MCW). The roundtable focused on the growing implications of urban heat stress across key sectors including energy, MSMEs, automobiles, FMCG, textiles, and urban logistics, highlighting how rising temperatures and frequent heatwaves are affecting productivity, worker safety, electricity demand, and supply chain efficiency across Indian cities. Ms. Aarti Khosla, Founder and Director of Climate Trends, said “Climate action sits at the intersection of public health and economic growth, heat stress is the single largest threat to public health and the macroeconomy. As Mumbai hosts Climate Week for the first time, there is recognition that we are not witnessing daily weather changes, but long-term shifts in climate averages require immediate attention.” “Investing in resilience makes economic sense, every dollar invested can generate up to 19 dollars in avoided losses. While acting today may seem costly, inaction will be far more expensive. We need practical financial models that go beyond taxonomy debates to support MSMEs and protect vulnerable workers, especially in India’s largely informal workforce, as we accelerate the transition to renewables.” Said Ms. Khosla. Dr. Vijay Kalantri, Chairman, World Trade Center Mumbai and President, All India Association of Industries, said “If we look at Indian cities today, Urban heat is no longer an environmental issue, it is becoming a serious development challenge. Heatwaves have intensified over the past two decades; many cities are experiencing temperatures 3 to 8 degrees Celsius higher than surrounding rural regions due to the Urban Heat Island effect.” Dr. Kalantri said, “With India’s urban population expected to cross 40 percent by 2030, rising temperatures are increasingly impacting public health, urban liveability, and economic productivity, particularly for vulnerable communities.” “Nearly 75 percent of India’s workforce is exposed to high-temperature conditions, and estimates suggest the country could lose around 5.8 percent of total working hours by 2030 due to extreme heat alone. The World Bank has also warned that GDP losses could reach up to 4.5 percent without adequate adaptation measures.” Added Dr. Kalantri. Mr. Vishwas Chitale, Head, Climate Resilience, Council on Energy, Environment and Water (CEEW), said, “Rising urban heat is increasingly being driven as much by rapid urbanisation as by climate change. Higher temperatures and relative humidity levels are already impacting overall productivity and industrial output. Addressing heat stress through climate-resilient solutions should therefore be viewed not only as an environmental response but also from a return-on-investment perspective, as these adaptation measures can deliver measurable economic and operational benefits.” The session was moderated by Ms. Archana Choudhary, Associate Director, Climate Trends and the participants emphasised that urban heat, often viewed primarily as an environmental concern, is increasingly emerging as a critical economic and development challenge requiring integrated planning and coordinated action. The roundtable witnessed participation from representatives across industry, finance, healthcare, sustainability, and policy institutions, including auctusESG, ITC, Siemens, Union Bank of India, CEEW, NISM, DSP Asset Managers, State Load Despatch Centre, and the All India MSME Association. The discussion concluded with an interactive exchange among participants, followed by actionable next steps toward strengthening urban climate resilience. Read More

Seattle Business Delegation at WTC Mumbai

February 5, 2026 - Just days after India-US relations broke the ice by announcing a trade deal, World Trade Center Mumbai, in association with the All-India Association of Industries (AIAI), organized a high-level business delegation from Seattle today. This is the first India-focused leadership mission of its kind from the state of Washington, organized by the Seattle Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce and Greater Seattle Partners, comprising more than 32 senior leaders from business, real estate, technology, aviation, and the creative economy covering entire gamut of trade ties. Sharing insights on the Seattle region’s economic strengths, innovation ecosystem, and opportunities for Indian companies, Mr. Dave Somers, County Executive, Snohomish County, said, “The county of Snohomish hosts the historic Boeing Factory positioning the city of Seattle as an aerospace hub. We at Seattle value international cooperation in trade and investment. With an experience in being a hub for high value manufacturing, we wish to collaborate in areas such as aerospace, advanced manufacturing and telecom technology, green energy, and infrastructure development. In the coming months we will develop a sustainable hub for aviation fuel in line with international standards thereby providing a window of opportunity for international players. Being heavily dependent on international trade, we are always open for trade and development in Snohomish County in Seattle”. Speaking at the event, Mr. Sam Cho, Commissioner, Port of Seattle, said, “The Port of Seattle is one of the most diversified ports in the United States and a major international gateway. We are deeply committed to global connectivity, with the largest cruise business on the U.S. West Coast and a strong maritime presence through the Northwest Seaport Alliance formed in 2015. Despite ongoing geopolitical tensions, our trade volumes have remained steady”. “The Seattle metropolitan region is home to global leaders such as Boeing, Amazon, Microsoft, and Starbucks. We see significant opportunities to expand air cargo and passenger services with India, which is currently our 13th-largest air cargo trade partner. With over 277,000 passengers traveling between Seattle and India, we also remain focused on strengthening trade, services, and connectivity. We highly value the role of the World Trade Center and admire the spirit of innovation and service demonstrated by Indian enterprises.” added Mr. Sam Cho Hon. Angela Birney, Mayor, City of Redmond, Washington, said, “Redmond is a global hub for innovation built on talent, diversity, and international collaboration. Nearly 45% of our residents were born outside the United States, and 75% of adults hold a bachelor’s degree or higher. The Indian community and Indian entrepreneurs play a vital role in our economy and cultural fabric”. “Redmond hosts a growing startup ecosystem in artificial intelligence, fusion energy, implant computers, and clean technology, and is home to several global Indian companies such as HCL, Tata Group, and Tech Mahindra, strengthening two-way economic ties. India is a strategic partner in education, innovation, culture, and long-term growth. By investing in relationships with India, we invest in shared prosperity. US is seriously looking at India as a preferred investment destination” added Ms. Birney. In his welcome address, Dr. Vijay Kalantri, Chairman, World Trade Center Mumbai and President, All India Association of Industries, said “the recent India–US trade deal, aims to scale bilateral trade in goods and services to USD 500 billion by 2030, similarly we should aim to scale capital flows from US to India from the current mark of 50 Billion dollars”. “This delegation comes at an opportune time as we press reset button to our ties. Seattle is the tech city of the US and as we march towards the 10 trillion-dollar economy by 2030, this relationship with Seattle will work both ways harnessing capital and required technology for the growth of our economy. With this delegation at World Trade Center, Mumbai, I would like to pass on the message through you that India is eager to grow with mutual support. Let temporary hiccups not be a long aberration for our consequential ties”, stressed Dr. Kalantri. Dr. Kalantri stated, “The Seattle region represents key opportunities for Indian businesses, particularly in sectors such as technology, logistics, real estate, clean energy, advanced manufacturing, and start-ups. Home to global leaders in aerospace, quantum computing, and innovation including Boeing, Microsoft and several other major companies, Seattle offers strong potential for collaboration with Indian industry. Coming immediately after the India–US trade deal, this first leadership delegation from the region carries special significance, and we are proud to host the delegation at World Trade Center Mumbai”. The event witnessed participation from over 500 representatives from industry, entrepreneurs, and MSMEs. The Seattle business delegation’s visit to World Trade Center Mumbai underscored the shared commitment of India and the United States to deepen economic engagement, foster innovation-led growth, and build resilient global partnerships.
