NEW DELHI: The labour ministry wants to woo employers the world over to get them to hire India’s growing workforce, which the government estimates swells by 10 million every year.

The ministry and the Indian Staffing Federation, a body of the flexi staffing industry, are partnering to host the World Employment Conference for the first time in India. They seek to showcase the country’s talent beyond medical and engineering, the streams from where Indians traditionally migrate to developed nations and often don’t return. “The idea is to market our skilled workforce to the countries that have certain kind of skill deficit which Indian workers can fulfill,” a person associated with the event said.

7th Annual India Business Forum Conference

Innovative India: Creating Value & Opportunities

23rd April, 2009, London

The India Business Forum (IBF), formulated in the year 2002, aims to further the role of India in the global business milieu. With London Business School as the platform, the IBF is a confluence of Global Business Leaders, Leading Academicians, Financiers, Entrepreneurs and Students to discuss and debate pertinent issues relating to doing business in and with India.

Once sidelined as a “third world” country to more recently joining the powerful G20 club, the incredible metamorphosis of India has pleasantly surprised the world. These tumultuous times, though bode well for further surprises, do beg the question of “where from here?” At the 7th Annual London Conference the India Business Forum connects experts and industrialists which have been a part of this incredible growth story and who are best placed to forecast its future economic performance trajectory.

INDOLINK will attend the Forum to witness and participate in an intellectual marathon that has a global bearing/impact.
