Sarma is set to meet the top industry players in Singapore and he will showcase Assam’s potential to become a hub for investments.

“I will be in Singapore for the next two days to promote Advantage Assam, highlighting the state’s growing potential in sectors such as semiconductors, deep technology, infrastructure, and manufacturing. We will host a roadshow and hold one-on-one meetings with industry leaders to explore strategic collaborations and investment opportunities. A key focus will be on positioning Assam as an emerging hub for advanced industries and innovation,” the Assam CM had posted on X on Sunday.

The Chief Minister earlier went to South Korea and Japan and had a series of meetings with the investors. He has invited them to attend the Advantage Assam summit.

A spectacular Jhumur dance performance with more than 7,500 dancers and artists will be part of the event. It will be an extraordinary show, the CM said.
