FICCI’s international division envisions to take India’s growth story and its corporate sector’s entrepreneurial zeal to newer markets and business entities across the globe.

By initiating inter-governmental and intra-agency cooperation and collaborations, FICCI International has not only established itself as a focal point for policy makers and highest decision making authorities at home and abroad for its pertinent inputs, but is constantly endeavouring to harness and showcase the very best that Indian corporate sector has to offer to the world.

To attain the cherished goal, FICCI International aims to infuse and harmonise the emerging capabilities of every sector in the economy. By doing so, the division supports the cause of FICCI to remain at the forefront for ensuring and evaluating business opportunities for Indian industry in every part of the globe.

We also work closely with several bilateral and multilateral institutions and provide the private sector’s perspective on evolving global and regional public policy and economic issues.

Further, as geo-political developments across the world have a bearing on economic relations just as these get influenced by business relations amongst countries, we also provide a platform for industry, academia and strategic affairs experts to come and discuss issues related to India’s foreign policy.
