"During my first-ever visit to Gujarat, I was delighted to meet Gautam Adani to discuss his vision of India's rise. I was impressed by the Adani Mundra Industrial Park. The Adani Group's investments into world class infrastructure in Mundra is one of the many reasons that Gujarat leads in places to do business. We look forward to presenting our Global Leadership Award to Adani at our summit in New Delhi on 7th September, where we will celebrate 75 years of the Indian growth story and chart the next 75 years of U.S.-India prosperity" said ambassador (ret.)
