About This Committee

The Manufacturing Committee is dedicated to empowering manufacturing companies to overcome challenges and achieve sustainable growth. Serving as a strategic platform for collaboration between European Union and Indian manufacturers, the committee facilitates constructive dialogue and the exchange of best practices. By leveraging the collective expertise and resources of its members, the committee provides critical insights and tailored solutions that enable companies to optimize their operations, foster innovation, and enhance competitiveness. Our initiatives are designed to strengthen the manufacturing sector and bolster economic ties between India and the European Union.

Key focus areas include improving the ease of doing business for Indian companies in the EU and vice versa, with discussions centered on identifying current barriers and opportunities. The committee also explores mergers and acquisitions (M&A) opportunities within the manufacturing sector, highlighting key sectors and companies while offering suggestions to streamline and strengthen M&A processes. Public policy workshops are organized to address regulatory frameworks, tax policies, and sector-specific legislations that impact the manufacturing industry.

Sustainability remains a critical priority, with an emphasis on renewable energy solutions such as wind and solar power. The committee fosters discussions on sustainable practices, the challenges faced by manufacturers, and the incentives available for adopting environmentally responsible approaches. Additionally, site visits to manufacturing hubs are conducted to provide hands-on insights into innovative practices and facilitate knowledge sharing among members. By collaborating with industry leaders, sharing expertise, and addressing the complexities of the manufacturing landscape, the committee aims to unlock new opportunities for success and drive growth in this vital sector.
