We are pleased to invite you to a discussion on recent economic developments in India, including a series of recent economic reforms and judicial decisions. International buisinesses have raised concerns about their ability to securely operate in India, specifically regarding its policies on procurement, intellectual property rights, taxes, and preferential market access.  Do these reforms signal a protectionist turn and isolation from international business?

This event will showcase the views of stakeholders in the public and private sector their views on the current economic situation in India and chart ways forward in order to maximize the economic potential of the bilateral relationship.

*Please note our event will take place at the FHI Conference Center, 1825 Connecticut Avenue.*
