Amaravati’s push onto the world stage took a significant leap forward as Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu returned from the World Economic Forum in Davos, hailing the trip as a game-changer for the state’s branding.
Wrapping up his four-day visit on Thursday, Naidu emphasized how the prestigious platform opened doors to global industrial trends and insights from top leaders. ‘This was invaluable for showcasing Andhra Pradesh’s strengths,’ he stated, highlighting meetings that spotlighted key sectors like green energy, technology, AI, agriculture, and tourism.
Over three intense days, Naidu engaged in more than 36 meetings, connecting with 16 global industry titans and participating in numerous sessions. Discussions zeroed in on exciting projects: the TCS Development Center in Visakhapatnam, the upcoming Quantum Valley in Amaravati, and solar power initiatives in Kurnool.
Naidu noted a surge in global corporate interest in India, crediting the nation’s youthful workforce, strong leadership, and investor-friendly policies. ‘Opportunities are booming across all sectors,’ he said, pointing to meetings with representatives from Israel, UAE, and Switzerland.
The visit also allowed Naidu to rally the Telugu diaspora in Europe, boosting their confidence through dedicated programs. He seized the moment to give exclusive interviews to national and international media, further amplifying Andhra Pradesh’s narrative.
As the state fine-tunes its policies, the WEF’s feedback will play a crucial role in elevating the Andhra brand globally. Naidu’s Davos success underscores a strategic vision poised to attract massive investments and propel economic growth.
