Bhubaneswar: A high-level Japanese delegation led by Tottori Prefecture Governor Shinji Hirai will visit Odisha from November 10 to 12 to explore opportunities for expanding cooperation in industrial investment, business, skill development, education and cultural exchanges.
A key outcome of the three-day visit is expected to be the signing of a Friendship Agreement between the Odisha Government and the Tottori Prefectural Government, providing an institutional framework for long-term collaboration in economic activities, tourism, environmental initiatives, and youth, student and personnel exchanges.
The delegation will begin its engagements on November 10 with an interaction with Odisha’s startup and business community at Startup Odisha’s O-Hub in Bhubaneswar. The programme will also include a visit to the Central Tool Room and Training Centre (CTTC), followed by a business roundtable involving state government officials, industry representatives, Japanese companies operating in Odisha and business delegates from Tottori.
The discussions are expected to focus on potential investments and partnerships in manufacturing, food processing, technology and other emerging sectors.
