Economy Minister Wants to Expand Contacts with India - Saxony’s Minister Heads to India to Boost Trade and Recruit Talent
Saxony's Economics Minister Dirk Panter is set to travel to India, aiming to strengthen the state's ties with the country and attract skilled workers to its businesses. The visit, scheduled for this week, will focus on the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu, with stops in Coimbatore and Chennai.
Last year, Saxon companies exported goods worth €306.5 million to India, highlighting the significance of the Indian market for the region's economy. Dirk Panter, leading a delegation of around 20 members from the Saxon economy, will engage in meetings and company visits during his trip. The delegation, organized by Wirtschaftsförderung Sachsen GmbH, will concentrate on economic cooperation and the recruitment of skilled workers. Despite the visit's focus on specific companies, the names of the participating Saxon businesses remain unmentioned in available sources.
Dirk Panter's visit to India underscores Saxony's commitment to expanding its economic footprint in the key growth market of India. The trip aims to foster stronger ties, facilitate trade, and attract skilled workers to the region's businesses, contributing to the growth and prosperity of both Saxony and its Indian partners.
