The 10th Vibrant Summit is themed on ‘Gateway to the Future’. Chief Minister emphasized that Gujarat will realize the Prime Minister’s vision of a ‘Viksit Bharat @2047’ through this summit. With a proactive policy-led approach, ease of doing business, investor-friendly attitude, and robust industrial infrastructure, Gujarat has emerged as the most preferred investment destination. Not just that, ‘Gateway to the Future’ is entirely set to become the gateway to a bright future for the nation.

Chief Minister Shri Bhupendra Patel also stated that Gujarat has initiated its contribution to realize the Prime Minister’s vision of a Developed India through future-ready mega projects like GIFT City, Dholera SIR, DREAM City, Greenfield Ports, and the Ahmedabad-Mumbai High-Speed Rail project.

In GIFT City, new emerging sectors like aircraft leasing, financing, and fintech hubs are being developed. Dholera SIR will become India’s largest greenfield industrial investment region and a greenfield smart industrial city.

The state’s renewable energy capacity has reached 20 GW. Furthermore, Gujarat has set its target of generating 100 GW of renewable energy through Green Hydrogen Mission.

The Chief Minister said that seminars and conferences on essential topics such as new emerging sectors, renewable energy, semiconductors, sustainable manufacturing, green hydrogen, electric mobility, and Industry 4.0 will be organised in the upcoming Vibrant Summit in January 2024.
