Amit Midha, President of DELL EMC said, “India’s growth story over the last few years has been incredible! Several indicators including a healthy GDP growth rate, ease of doing business, manufacturing environment, FDI growth, financial inclusion and a flourishing start-up ecosystem are witnessing encouraging developments, backed by a progressive government. However for India’s true potential to be realized, these transformational trends need to be evenly spread across India’s diverse demographic and geographic landscape. Our government’s Digital India initiative, complemented with collaborative private participation, will catalyze India’s transition into a digitally empowered society and a knowledge economy. A digitized India will impact industries, enterprises and individuals, making way for futuristic technologies that will lead to never-before-seen transformation at professional and personal levels. There’s no better time than now to do business in India.”

Chairman of Maxxis Group, Tsai Jen Lo said, “Gujarat presents a favorable ecosystem for businesses to flourish. It is growing with its mission to 'Transform India'. It is rightfully known as ‘India’s Economic Expressway' and we are extremely satisfied with our investments in the state”.
