People are shifting focus towards biofuel, and India has already presented the world’s biggest hydrogen project, which has attracted investors.’

In two days, the CII and Invest India have expressed joy that an Indian woman leader has come to Davos. Those inspired by PM Modi’s inclusive growth agenda can come forward for investment… Over 10,000 companies have shown their interest. WEF will support and sponsor all the activities presented by India for women’s empowerment all over the world.’ During the WEF summit, She engaged in productive discussions with global leaders and industry representatives.
