India: Emerging Opportunities for NSW Exporters amid COVID-19

31/03/2021

India is one of the world’s fastest growing economies, with a population of more than 1.3 billion and an expanding middle class.  A ‘top 5’ economy undergoing ambitious reforms, it is an attractive market for Australian exporters.

Despite the economic impact of COVID-19 in 2020, there is strong and growing demand for Australian goods and services. A fast-growing middle class, rapid urbanisation and a stable, reformist government underpins this demand.

Join the Export Council of Australia, Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade and economic and private sector experts to hear why you should be considering India, and get insights on getting into market.

In this free webinar, we will discuss the India-Australia commercial proposition, market entry and the support available to NSW businesses looking to expand into India.
