Delighted to welcome the high-level delegation led by Mayor Richard Parker of the West Midlands Combined Authority on their first visit to Gujarat after the historic India–UK Trade Deal.
Under the visionary leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, India has emerged as a trusted global partner, and Gujarat continues to lead as a global investment and innovation hub.
The delegation expressed strong interest in collaboration across higher education, green economy & EVs, AI, advanced manufacturing, skill development, and sports infrastructure, including support for the Commonwealth Games ecosystem.
A Gujarat–West Midlands Joint Working Group will be formed, with iNDEXTb as the nodal agency, to deepen coordination and accelerate partnerships.
Invited the delegation to participate in the upcoming Vibrant Gujarat Summit to further strengthen our shared vision for innovation-led growth and global collaboration.
