Arvind Balalji, Managing Director, Lucas TVS Group

I would like to thank AIBA for inviting me and giving me the opportunity to present our company to the wider Austrian audience. The meeting was well attended and I enjoyed the various discussions that followed. I have long believed that Indian companies could benefit from the engineering expertise in Austria and Austrian companies could benefit from the dynamism in India as well as de-risk their dependency from China. I hope this is a new chapter in Indo Austrian relations and I wish AIBA the very best.

I would like to congratulate AIBA for this well organised meeting and exchange. I was glad to see that there is good participation from local industries. As there a variety of opportunities, we need to now take it up next level, ie building mutually beneficial projects, which could be joint ventures, sourcing products from each other and a joint R&D project to serve both countries. We are ready to begin this exciting journey.

Thanks to AIBA for taking the lead in forging closer relationships between India and Austria.  The meeting was very well put together and I was pleased with the participation. It is clear that Austrian Mittelstand companies have a significant growth potential and they could greatly benefit from Aequs advanced manufacturing ecosystems in India. As global supply chains need to be strengthened beyond China, we hope to partner closely with Austrian companies in search for reliable scaling of manufacturing with high efficiencies.
