British High Commissioner to India, Sir James Bevan on Friday launched the British Business Group Bangalore chapter in Bangalore on Friday. BBG Bangalore will aim to provide members with business contacts in India and in the UK and a platform for networking and leveraging business contacts and opportunities.
BBG-Bangalore is part of the BBG National network in India, with chapters in Chennai, Delhi, Goa, Hyderabad, Mumbai and Pune. By becoming a member of BBG - Bangalore, you have the ability to attend any meetings at any of the BBGs across India.
Addressing industry leaders on the occasion, Sir James said, “My Prime Minister David Cameron wants a stronger, wider, deeper partnership with India. Working together India and Britain will be safer, richer, and stronger. Nowhere is there greater potential for that partnership than here in Bangalore – which was one of the reasons why on his first visit to India after becoming Prime Minister, it was to this city and not to any other outside the capital that David Cameron chose to come. And why I am a frequent visitor myself.”
Sir James said an example of where the UK and India can come together is in the proposed Bangalore Mumbai Economic Corridor (BMEC).
