[Partner Event] Opportunities of EU-India Free Trade for Styrian companies

India continues to emerge as one of the world’s most dynamic growth markets, increasingly positioning itself as a strategic partner for European companies across trade, technology, and industrial collaboration. In this context, the advancing negotiations around the EU–India Free Trade Agreement (FTA) are expected to significantly enhance market access, streamline supply chains, and unlock new avenues for investment and economic cooperation.

In collaboration with IC Steiermark, this session, scheduled for May 7, 2026, will bring together industry stakeholders to explore the evolving EU–India economic corridor, with a focus on the practical implications of the FTA for businesses. The discussion will be  enriched by insights from Dezan Shira & Associates’ India team, Ankur Munjal, Country Director India and  Naina Bhardwaj, Associate Director- International Business Advisory who will share on-the-ground perspectives on regulatory developments, market entry considerations, and operational realities in India.

The event is designed for companies already active in India seeking clarity on how the FTA may impact their existing operations, as well as for organizations evaluating market entry and assessing whether the evolving trade landscape represents a strategic inflection point.

Keynote sessions will provide a structured overview of the EU–India FTA, alongside practical insights from companies operating in India. These will be followed by an interactive exchange, offering participants the opportunity to engage directly with speakers and peers.
