President Obama and Prime Minister Modi have expressed their commitment to a strengthened economic partnership given the United States’ and India’s bourgeoning strategic partnership. Both nations share a vision to raise current bilateral trade from $100 billion to a projected $500 billion over the next ten years. Moreover the Indian government has set itself the ambitious task of getting into the top thirty in the World Bank’s ease of doing business monitor over the next three years. Within this context, captains of Indian industry from the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) will provide a real time perspective of the current business climate and will also discuss opportunities for potential growth in US-India investments.
