Where is the world’s tenth biggest economy headed? And how can you do business there?

India is a country of 1.2 billion people and the tenth largest economy in the world. Yet it often falls in the shadow of the faster growing Chinese economy, or the smaller, more agile economies in South East Asia.

Where is the Indian economy headed? How do you do business in India? And what can we learn from Norwegian companies that have already established themselves in the Indian market?

Minster of Trade and Industry, Trond Giske will give the welcome remarks.
