About The Summit
The Government of Assam is proud to present “Advantage Assam 2024” – the Global Investors’ Summit, scheduled to be held in Guwahati on November 7-8, 2024, at the Sarusajai Stadium. This event marks the largest investment promotion and facilitation initiative by the Government of Assam, highlighting the state’s geostrategic advantages and its potential as a major investment destination. Assam is strategically located in the northeastern region of India, serving as a gateway to Northeast India and Southeast Asia. The state is renowned for its lush tea gardens and petroleum resources and is now diversifying into sectors such as agriculture, food processing, handicrafts, tourism, and information technology. In the fiscal year 2023, Assam recorded a remarkable 19.5% year-on-year surge in its Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP), reflecting its transformative economic journey. This significant growth underscores Assam’s dynamic leadership and attractive investment policies. Recent strategic investments, such as the approximately USD 3.3 billion Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly and Test (OSAT) project by TATA in Jagiroad, highlight Assam’s ability to attract big-ticket investments and its commitment to creating a conducive business environment. The summit will showcase Assam’s manufacturing prowess and opportunities in export-oriented manufacturing and services to growing economies, particularly ASEAN and BBN countries. As a precursor to the main summit, the Government of Assam will conduct roadshows at various domestic and international locations to showcase the business potential and investment opportunities in the state. The summit promises to be a major platform for G2B and B2B meetings, displaying the state’s investment opportunities. We believe Advantage Assam 2024 presents a significant opportunity for businesses to explore trade and investment prospects in Assam, particularly in key sectors such as infrastructure and connectivity, energy, digital economy, IT, defense, aerospace, automobile manufacturing, sports, pharma, healthcare, agriculture, tourism, and financial services.
