The India-Mauritius Global Partnership Forum
Introduction
For the very first time in the economic history of Mauritius, The IMTCFF took the initiative to organise a prime business and corporate conference involving key business and economic players of India and Mauritius.
Cabinet has taken note that the India-Mauritius Global Partnership Conference by the India Mauritius Trade and Cultural Friendship Forum would be held in Mauritius in July 2016. The Forum was launched in April 2015 following the visit of the Indian Prime Minister in Mauritius to further boost cooperation in the field of trade, and arts and culture between India and Mauritius.
The main objectives of the Conference will be to bring together eminent intellectuals, successful businessmen, potential investors and prominent artists of the Indian Diaspora to showcase and promote partnership opportunities in various fields of socio-economic activity. Some 300 foreign participants are expected to attend the Conference.
The VisionOur vision is to create this summit as an institution that will strengthen the India-Mauritius
Global Partnership by creating a new socio-economic & cultural framework based on the
mutual cooperation and understanding.
We work under the guiding principle of R-M-E, which promotes and fosters strong and
pragmatic partnerships. The R-M-E model advocates formation of a strong Relationship
first, followed by deliberations to devise Mechanism so as to bring about effective
Execution leading to social Empowerment, holistic and robust economy. Our aim is to
develop a global model of this framework for India, Mauritius and the rest of the world.
The Partnership‘India-Mauritius Global Partnership’ is a mutually beneficial partnership, where both India
and Mauritius will work along with their global partners by putting their mutual strengths
together, to serve rest of the world as a platform and let mutual national interests of both
the nations, be a by- product. This theory was promoted in 2015, by the Indian Prime
Minister Hon. Narender Bhai Modi during his visit to the island and the Mauritius Prime
Minister Hon. Sir Anerood Jugnauth, on the historical visit to India.
The Conference‘India-Mauritius Global Partnership Summit’ is envisioned as a summit led by two great
nations along with their global Partners- where policymakers, opinion leaders, business
leaders, media and academicians Dream, Design, Discuss, Decide, Drive and Derive
solutions to the challenges of a new socio-economic framework by creating a ‘ Micro Road
Map for the Macro Vision’ that exists in the form of India-Mauritius Global Partnership.

Some 200 key members of the Indian business communities are converging to Mauritius for a unique high-profile business event and they will interact with key players of the Mauritius business
community, as well as participants from the IOC region, and some from the African continent.
The Rt Hon Sir Anerood Jugnauth
GCSK, KCMG, QCPrime Minister
Mauritius will indeed be blessed to host the conference and
to welcome those knowledge gurus whose contribution can
be instrumental in transforming our country into a
high income economy.
It is my pleasure and privilege to associate myself
with the organisation of the India-Mauritius Global Partnership
Conference scheduled for end of July 2016.
It is internationally recognised that people of Indian
Origin have successfully paved their way to the
highest professional, economic, scientific, technological and political spheres across many
countries in the world.
I strongly value this initiative to strengthen our people to
people relations and to bring together in Mauritius eminent
intellectuals, professionals, successful business personalities,
potential investors and prominent artists of the India Diaspora to
showcase and promote partnership opportunities
in various fields of socio-economic activity.
