India Global Forum (IGF) is set to host Piyush Goyal, India’s Minister of Commerce and Industry, in an exclusive conversation with Bloomberg TV at IGF Mumbai 2025 at the Jio Convention Centre on April 7.
This timely discussion comes just days after US President Donald Trump announced sweeping tariffs on global imports, including a 27 per cent reciprocal levy on Indian exports to the United States. With the world’s economic order at a pivotal moment, the minister will delve into the implications of these tariffs on India and global markets. The conversation will focus on India’s strategy to navigate shifting trade policies, bolster its manufacturing sector, and strengthen economic partnerships amid evolving geopolitical and economic challenges.
The two-day summit under the theme ‘NXT25: Leading the Leap’ will bring together CEOs, global investors and policymakers to explore the biggest trends shaping India's future on the world stage, highlighting India’s ambitions for the next 25 years and its emergence as a global powerhouse in investment, technology, sustainability, and innovation.
Manoj Ladwa, Founder and CEO, India Global Forum, said: “As global trade faces unprecedented challenges following the recent tariff announcements by President Trump, IGF Mumbai 2025 comes at a critical juncture. This event will set the agenda for international collaboration and investment, offering a platform to not only respond to these developments but to shape the future of global trade.
