The ongoing Indo-Nordic Cooperation, marked by Summits in 2018 (Sweden), 2022 (Denmark), and the upcoming 2024 event in Norway, underscores a shared commitment to collaborative and collective action. This commitment is vital for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. Central to this strategy is the emphasis on renewable energy, innovation through startups, and new technologies. These elements are crucial for transforming ambitions into tangible outcomes.
With Prime Minister Narendra Modi's anticipated visit to Norway for the India Nordic Summit in October we hosted a roundtable at World Economic Forum together with Ministry of Commerce & Industry, Government of India, Invest India, Indian Danish Chamber of Commerce and Industry and Sweden India Business Council.
Indo-Nordic Industry Dialogue on Sustainability (INIDS)
The 'Indo-Nordic Industry Dialogue on Sustainability (INIDS)' aims to reiterate the Indo-Nordic commitment to building a sustainable future focussing on renewable energy, innovation and new technologies.
The Key facilitating actions discussed included:
- Establishing platforms for cross-sector collaboration, matching financing, new technologies, and knowledge partners to foster innovative business models for the green transition
- Emphasising the role of trade as an essential component for sustainability.
It's through such collaborative efforts that we can drive positive change and create a more sustainable future for all.
