"The event will showcase tremendous potential and supportive government policy for sustainable growth in the sector. It will also provide a platform for domestic and international investors and other stakeholders to interact and forge alliances...," Mandaviya said.

While the government has been providing a favourable ecosystem for global investors with its "ease of business" policies and incentives, the upcoming global event will showcase India as a favourable destination for investors and stakeholders in the chemicals sector, he added.
