Learn how investors are gaining exposure to the new engine of the world economy.
This is an invitation to join the Indian banks, infrastructure financiers, project developers, development banks and policymakers who will be at the heart of this growth story.
Learn about the projects they are planning to develop, ways of gaining exposure to green infrastructure assets and solutions being developed to overcome existing barriers to investment.
TED style presentations from India will cover five year pipelines of projects over USD 100m, as well as future sources of funding (bonds, listed and private equity).
India plans to double its energy demand by 2020, including by increasing renewable capacity from 32GW today to 175GW in 2022. The largest democracy is also ramping up its rail and electrified transport programmes, investing heavily in energy efficiency and developing 100 'smart cities'.
With 1.26 billion people and an economy expected to grow at 8% annually, India has become a new engine of the global economy.
