Odisha Chief Minister
Mohan Charan Majhi will lead a high-level delegation to a two-day Investors’
Meet in Dubai on September 8 and 9, as part of the state government’s efforts
to attract foreign direct investment and bring major industrial projects to the
state.
During his visit to
Dubai, one of the world’s leading business hubs, Majhi is expected to showcase
Odisha as an emerging industrial powerhouse and highlight its investor-friendly
ecosystem before global investors, business leaders and major industrial
groups.
The Investors’ Meet
will focus on investment opportunities across key thrust sectors identified by
the state government, including metals and downstream manufacturing,
petrochemicals, green energy and green hydrogen, food processing, textiles and
apparel, electronics system design and manufacturing, and ports and logistics.
Dubai has been
strategically chosen for the roadshow as it serves as a major gateway to the
Middle East and is home to the headquarters of several leading conglomerates
with operations across the UAE and the wider Middle East and North Africa
(MENA) region.
The Odisha government
plans to use the platform to hold business-to-government (B2G) meetings with
prominent industrial groups and invite them to explore investment opportunities
in the state.
The roadshow is part of the government’s broader push to position Odisha as an attractive destination for global capital and accelerate industrial growth through increased foreign investment.
The government expects the Dubai engagement to generate fresh investment intents, facilitate the setting up of major projects in Odisha and create large-scale employment opportunities for the state’s youth.
