During his visit to major Indian cities including New Delhi, Mumbai, and Hyderabad, Meyer focused on building sustainable partnerships with Indian businesses, technology leaders, and policymakers.

The Delaware Governor noted that many global corporations already have a strong presence in the state, positioning it as a gateway for Indian companies looking to expand in the United States.

Meyer emphasised the importance of collaboration in addressing global economic challenges, including supply chain resilience and workforce development. He highlighted that stronger India-US engagement can contribute to building a more stable and inclusive global economy.
The outreach reflects a broader trend of US states actively engaging with India to attract investment and build long-term economic partnerships, reinforcing India’s role as a key driver of global growth.
