The Haryana government is planning to hold roadshows in five metros Delhi, Kolkata, Mumbai, Bengaluru and Hyderabad in the run-up to the investors summit to be held on March 7 and 8 next year in Gurgaon.
The state through the 'Happening Haryana Global Investors Summit-2016' wants to position itself as a preferred investment destination and attract investors.
Stating this here today, state Industries Minister Capt. Abhimanyu said Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar will flag off the first roadshow in New Delhi on December 22, 2015.
Besides, 'Pravasi Haryana Divas' is also being organised on March 9, 2016 to attract investments from such entrepreneurs from Haryana who have set up business ventures abroad and in other parts of the country and are doing exceedingly well in their respective fields.
"The main aim of organising the Summit is to mobilise investments into Haryana by leveraging the primary focus on ease of doing business and enhancing competitiveness of industry by reducing the cost of doing business and promoting skill development, entrepreneurship and innovation under the New Enterprises Promotion Policy-2015, which was announced on August 14, 2015," the Minister said.
The policy also aims at uniform and balanced industrial growth with emphasis on medium and small enterprises to boost job creation in the state.
The Pravasi Haryana Divas has been planned to apprise the NRIs of the huge investment potential Haryana has, and the vast scope the state offers for investment in varied fields, and draw them to invest here.
The state offers ample opportunities of investment in the areas including that of food processing, pharma, information technology, auto, defence production, aerospace, bio-technology, healthcare, medical education, skill development, Digital India and automotive, he said.
"Besides, under the Chief Minister's Swaprerit Adarsh Gram Yojana on the pattern of Saansad Adarsh Gram Yojana, the NRIs of Haryana origin and renowned industrialists of the country would also be wooed to develop their native villages.
With the state government playing the facilitator through ease-of-doing business under the new industrial policy, Haryana offers a fertile ground for the seeds of industry to germinate and grow into blossoms of rewarding returns," Abhimanyu added.
