Meanwhile, the Yogi Adityanath government 2.0 will also explore the possibility of roping in countries such as the Netherlands, Japan, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Finland, Thailand, Belgium and Sweden as ‘partners’ for the Summit.

At the UP Investors Summit 2018, UP had netted nearly Rs 4.68 trillion in public and private investments from national and multinational firms. Of these, the state has already launched projects totalling Rs 3 trillion so far.
