The Gujarat Chamber of Commerce and Industry (GCCI) has organised a business to business meet with foreign delegates from 31 nations to promote export from the state to these countries. The foreign delegates are in the state to participate in Vibrant Navratri.

Although no businessman has accompanied the foreign delegates, it would surely encourage exports to these countries from the state, said Samir Patel, senior vice-president of GCCI. The foreign delegates include ambassadors, high commissioners, consul general and other top officials from countries like Japan, Korea, Uganda, Indonesia, Cambodia and Tajikistan, to name a few.

"We have invited very few people, and mostly those engaged in export related activities," he said. Patel said that the aim of the chamber is to provide a platform wherein members can interact with these delegates directly. This would enhance opportunities for the entrepreneurs of the state, he said.
