While the EU-India relationship has a great deal of potential, the major roadblock is the long-term pending EU-India Bilateral Trade and Investment Agreement (BTIA). However, India is looking to boost foreign investment and has taken some initiatives in this direction, with the launch of Make in India and Smart City campaigns, the two areas where European businesses have the capacity and even desire to get engaged with India. Centered on it, EICC (Europe India Chamber of Commerce) is organizing Trade and Investment Partnership Summit (TIPS) 2015 on September 30 in Belgium. Potentials for investment, the current state of business between the two nations and how it can be further improved and most importantly, long-pending BTIA – have been extensively covered in this special issue of Biz@India, focusing on different sectors like pharma, skill development, etc.
