<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->After very little interaction for over 50 years, corporate America is
engaging with India as never before. At the same time, a new corporate
elite is emerging in India that is looking to interact with the US
business world in ways unimaginable only a few years ago.
Increased interaction has led to the realization of new mutually
profitable business opportunities, in such areas as IT, pharmaceuticals,
auto components, and defense. It is also uncovering
new challenges such as patent protection, tariffs, federal bans on
outsourcing etc.
On February 26th, 2004 a symposium is being held at the Federal Reserve in Philadelphia to discuss the most pressing and current US-India bilateral
economic and business strategic issues. The symposium is being organized by the Global Interdependent Center and the US India Institute. It aims to
promote greater economic, business and trade opportunities between the
two countries. India's Ambassador to the US, His Excellency Lalit Mansingh, will give the keynote address to the large number of business leaders, government officials and strategic thinkers who will be present.
The Global Interdependence Center (GIC), established in 1976, concerns itself with fostering dialogue to meet the challenges faced in building a
global civilization focusing on the consequences and opportunities of
global economic transformations and promoting productive global
interdependence.
The US India Institute has been established to promote a long-term
alliance befitting the world's two largest democracies anchored in
democratic freedoms and the strengthening of economic and national
security ties between the United States and India.
Here are some details:
