On Monday afternoon, about 70 people attended the event “New India, Growing India: What Luxembourg could offer and gain in the partnership”, organised by the Indian Business Chamber of Luxembourg (IBCL) and the Embassy of India in Brussels (also accredited to Luxembourg) at Deloitte.

This invitation-only event took place in the framework of the IBCL’s fourteenth anniversary celebrations, as well as to mark 75 years of diplomatic relations between Luxembourg and India. IBCL President Aditya Sharma reflected on certain milestones for the chamber over the years, including obtaining bilateral accreditation recognition from the Luxembourg Chamber of Commerce in 2022 and recent trade delegation visits to India. He spoke of the ways in which businesses had adapted to survive and how the IBCL reinvented itself to support its members during the COVID-19 pandemic. He also reflected on the 75th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Luxembourg and India, noting how the two countries have worked closely together at the international level, particularly at the United Nations, over the years. He said he believed that continued cooperation would result in mutual gain.
