"There are 4 'P's to the 'how' of achieving our countries' shared goals and vision: Pace: We need to do things faster, pick up speed on our paths to shared goals, and find the best possible ways to do this without friction. Principles: We need to craft policies and principles strengthening the foundation of our relationship. Persistence: Things are not going to be easy, but it is important to stay persistent and keep pushing forward. Promises: We must build our future potential by delivering on our unfinished promises--and that builds deep and unwavering trust. To accelerate the pace of our work, it demands persistence, in the shadow of promises. Our shared principles can lead to prosperity in the world." - Ambassador Eric Garcetti, U.S. Ambassador to India Our #IndiaIdeasSummit explored how the U.S. and India, the world’s two largest democracies, are advancing progress in every corner of human enterprise, from the seas to the stars.

“The vision of Viksit Bharat 2047 is well established. The relationship between retail credit growth and GDP growth over the last 20 years is clear: they have a cause and effect relationship. Currently in India, more than 300 million people are under the age of 20. Over 600 million women could be eligible for credit, and over 60 million MSMEs are eligible for credit. We have reached this number in just the last 5 years by reaching these populations. This reflects deeply on our values of financial inclusion” - Rajesh Kumar, Managing Director and CEO, TransUnion CIBIL Ambassador (ret.) Atul Keshap Ryan M. M.
