BIGGEST BUSINESS SUMMIT OF INDIA<br />Friends, My greetings to you on the occasion of Makar Sankranti! It is after a long time that I am writing to you, as I was busy with the Vibrant Gujarat Global Investors’ Summit (VGGIS). All of you will be pleased to know that this VGGIS has etched its name in the history of India as the Biggest Business Summit, and that too in the year of Gujarat’s Golden Jubilee. Every citizen of this country feels proud at the success of this Summit held in this part of India, called Gujarat. <br />Representatives of as many as 101 countries from all the corners of the world took part in this summit. <br />Total number of delegates: 35,000. <br />There were nearly 1,400 foreign delegates, including many envoys. <br />Delegates of 19 States of India took part in the Summit to explore new opportunities for business in their respective states and signed MoUs. <br />Investment of Rs.20.83 lakh-crore (450 billion USD). <br />Total 7,936 MoUs signed. <br />Projected to create direct and indirect job opportunities for 52 lakh people. <br />Highest 54 % MoUs in Small and Medium Enterprise (SME) sector. <br />35 top-class corporate companies are to invest Rs. 20,000-crore for the economic empowerment of around 15 lakh women through women’s self-help groups <br />40 sector-specific seminars held in a span of 40 days. <br />India’s biggest convention centre Mahatma Mandir constructed in a short span of 182 days. <br />It is a matter of pride that this Summit proved useful for the development of not just Gujarat, but of entire India. This Summit was particularly dedicated to the Youth and Women Empowerment. The Summit served as a platform for the young generation to march ahead in new and untreated paths, through a series of knowledge-sharing events and seminars. It also marked the beginning of a new golden chapter in the field of women’s empowerment and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). The real gain of the Summit was its ability to ignite the feelings of ‘use of money for the welfare of the society and the nation’. While leaving for Japan in 1883 Swami Vivekanand inspired Jamshedji Tata to set up a ‘Research Institute of Science’ could youth, besides just a Steel Plant, which later materialized in the form of IISc, Bangalore. Today, Gujarat has got the fortune to inspire the Tata Group to work in the field of Rural Transportation, and Adani Group in the field of education for the poor. Today, in Gujarat such a confident atmosphere has been created that the industrialists are coming forward on their own with projects for rural housing, urban slum clearance and potable water in villages. In Gujarat, the government, officers and the people work in unison as one team to weave one story of success, taking the state to new heights. This is the reason for the successful realization of huge events like this Summit. This message of Good Governance will emanate from Mahatma Mandir as a source of inspiration for the entire nation. Like the movement for Swarajya (Self Rule), Gujarat will also lead the people’s movement for Surajya (Good Governance). Friends, I have a dream. My Gujarat should stand tall among the developed nations of the world. It should be a catalyst in getting India the stature of Vishwaguru once again. And we have to relentlessly work towards making this dream come true. There must be no stopping, no resting and no bending! Jay Jay Garvi Gujarat! <br />http://www.narendramodi.com/post/Biggest-Business-Summit-of-India.aspx<br />http://www.namoleague.com<br />http://www.narendramodi.com<br />
