The pavilion also organised several cultural activities during the festive season, especially for Dusshera, Navratri and Diwali celebrations.
What’s happening at the pavilion in November?
In November, the India Pavilion is hosting a series of business and cultural activities from Telangana, Rajasthan and Maharashtra on a global pedestal.
“These state-specific weeks are holding many engaging activities displaying their culture, tradition and tremendous business opportunities. While renewable energy, space and housing and urban affairs sectors have already seen policymakers and business leaders participating in the interactive sessions at the pavilion, oil and gas and textiles are two sectors to showcase India’s capabilities during this month,” said Dr Puri.
Bilateral conferences including the India-GCC Business conference, which was held this week, are also one of the major attractions of the India Pavilion engagements.
“Rajasthan week is currently on at the pavilion and will be followed by the Maharashtra week. Along with the cultural diversity and vibrancy, India’s innovative capability is also in full display with a special focus on startups — Karnataka and Telangana startups have received immense attention of the investors already. It is a blend of culture and business opportunities that is attracting the visitors to the India Pavilion,” said Dr Puri.
Events in December
The month of December will see participation from states like Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Kerala and key sectors like electronics and information technology, energy conservation, environment and sustainability, higher education and skills, tribal affairs, spices and tourism.
