Welcome Message

It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to the 10th Global Economic Summit (GES) and the 6th World Trade Expo (WTE), organised by the World Trade Center Mumbai and the All India Association of Industries. This year, for the first time, these two flagship events come together on a single global stage, creating an unprecedented platform for dialogue, collaboration, and opportunity.

The theme, “Accelerating Global Trade: Fostering Partnerships, Connectivity and Resilience,” reflects our collective responsibility to shape a more connected, inclusive, and sustainable future. The Summit will bring together policymakers, industry leaders, innovators, and entrepreneurs to deliberate on the most pressing issues in global trade. Alongside, the Expo will showcase international businesses, innovations, and opportunities, offering participants the chance to build meaningful partnerships and access new markets.

Together, GES and WTE 2025 will go beyond conversations and exhibitions — they will open doors for enterprises, empower MSMEs, strengthen women-led businesses, and create a vibrant ecosystem of global cooperation. We believe that by bringing the world to Mumbai, and Mumbai to the world, these events will help transform ideas into action and aspirations into achievements.

I warmly invite you to be a part of this landmark edition and join us in advancing trade, investment, and innovation that can truly change lives.
