Highlighted that:
✅ Commonwealth partners also need to de-risk and diversify. This requires shorter and trusted supply chains.
✅ More connectivity corridors are good for business. Commonwealth partners should make more efforts to enhance local distribution.
✅ Promote training and capacity building as it gives more options for partners.
✅ The Indian business community spread across the world is an asset for the Commonwealth.
✅ Digital is a game changer as it promotes efficiency, good governance and growth.
✅ International Solar Alliance and the Coalition for Disaster Resilient Infrastructure can be leveraged for climate action.
✅ Our First Responder experiences and HADR activities suggest the need for local hubs.
✅ Mobility of skills can be an important Commonwealth focus.
✅ The comfort within the Commonwealth can build business for growth and prosperity.
