Australian businesses are increasingly looking towards India as a market teeming with opportunity, with a recent Sydney event serving as a focal point for this growing interest. Hosted by the Consulate General of India and the Australia India Business Council (AIBC), the session, titled “Do you have an India Strategy?” featured insights from Professor Rajendra Srivastava, a leading expert in marketing strategy and innovation.

Professor Srivastava highlighted the rapid transformation of India’s economy, with projections painting an optimistic picture. By 2025, India is expected to house one-fifth of the global working-age population, and by 2030, its internet users will exceed 850 million. By 2035, five of its cities are forecasted to achieve economic outputs comparable to middle-income countries. Such growth presents Australian firms with unparalleled opportunities to invest and collaborate across sectors ranging from technology to agriculture.

The event also brought a health-conscious angle to the discussion, with Ms Archana, founder of Good Grains, advocating for the inclusion of millets in daily diets. Rich in nutrients like niacin, these ancient grains offer a natural way to boost skin health and overall well-being, aligning with the global push towards sustainable and healthy food systems.

The Australian Government’s “India Economic Strategy to 2035” also played a pivotal role in the discussions, serving as a guide for businesses seeking to build lasting partnerships. By fostering economic ties, this roadmap aims to benefit both nations, creating shared prosperity and resilience.

The session was a clear call to action for Australian companies to develop a tailored approach to India’s dynamic market, where rapid growth meets boundless potential. As trade links deepen, events like these highlight the rewards awaiting businesses ready to engage strategically with one of the world’s fastest-growing economies.
