More Singaporean urban solutions firms eye opportunities in Gujarat

A 100-strong delegation attended the Vibrant Gujarat Summit 2015.

The Indian state of Gujarat is receiving strong commercial interest from Singaporean companies because of its pro-business environment and good infrastructure, Second Minister for Trade and Industry S Iswaran said in a speech at the Vibrant Gujarat Summit 2015.

A 100-strong business delegation from Singapore attended the summit, among which were urban solutions companies as well as businesses in the infrastructure, food processing and education sectors.

“One area where Singapore hopes to make a significant contribution is to Prime Minister Modi’s initiatives to develop Smart and Sustainable Cities. Singapore government agencies and our private sector can make useful contributions in this sector having gained much expertise in driving our own development over the past 5 decades. We have been in discussions with the central government on its Smart Cities initiative. We are also working with Andhra Pradesh with masterplanning and development of its new capital city, and exploring opportunities in other states and cities in sectors such as township development, industrial and IT parks, as well as utilities such as water and power,” Minister Iswaran said.
