Union Commerce and Industry Minister Shri Piyush Goyal concluded a successful two-day visit to Switzerland on June 10, 2025, marking a significant step in strengthening the India–Switzerland economic partnership under the recently signed EFTA TEPA agreement.
Goyal’s meetings with Swiss leadership focused on innovation, regulatory cooperation, and investment facilitation. His keynote at the 18th Swissmem Industry Day in Zurich drew attention to India’s strengths in talent, infrastructure, and manufacturing, inviting Swiss firms to co-create technologies for global markets. A swift facilitation of land for Endress+Hauser near Pune was a standout example of India’s responsive governance.
Engagements included sectoral roundtables, discussions with Swiss businesses, and dialogue with ICAI’s Switzerland chapter. The visit concluded with Swiss industry reaffirming confidence in India as a strategic partner.
Goyal has now begun the Sweden leg of his tour, where he will co-chair the 21st Indo-Swedish Joint Commission and meet top Swedish leaders and businesses to deepen economic ties across innovation and sustainability sectors.
