During his virtual address at the Pune International Business Summit 2025, which was organised by Mahratta Chamber of Commerce, Industries, and Agriculture (MCCIA) on February 24, the Minister stressed that Prime Minister Narendra Modi's recent visits to the US and France have paved the way for greater investment and enhanced collaborations.

Goyal emphasised that the Union Budget reinforces its commitments with a Rs 10,000 crore Fund of Funds for Startups and a Deep Tech Fund empowering entrepreneurs. He further stressed that a significant investment committed towards R&D with an initial estimation of Rs 20,000 crore for Anusandhan National Research Foundation (ANRF) along with a high-level committee, an investment-friendly index and Jan Vishwas 2.0 further bolster trust-based governance.
