A delegation of 300 Canadian business leaders landed in India today, marking the biggest trade mission in three decades aimed at expanding bilateral commerce.
The 300‑member Canadian trade mission touched down in New Delhi early this morning, led by senior officials from Canada’s Ministry of International Trade.
The group, the largest in the past 30 years, comprises CEOs, investors and sector representatives from technology, clean energy, agriculture and finance, all seeking partnerships with Indian firms.
Over the coming week, delegates will attend B2B meetings, sectoral forums and government‑industry roundtables organized by the Canadian High Commission and Indian trade bodies, aiming to pinpoint investment opportunities and boost exports.
Canadian officials say the mission reflects growing interest in India’s market, which they view as a gateway to South Asia, and hope to seal deals worth billions of dollars.
Indian ministries have welcomed the visit, highlighting mutual benefits and the potential to deepen economic ties under the existing Canada‑India Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement.
