Global Investors' Summit to be held in a wi-fi zone



The entire three-day Global Investors' Summit will be held in a complete wi-fi zone. The BSNL Indore, which is also the communications partner of AKVN for the event, has been asked to make arrangements for it.

GC Pandey, senior general manager, BSNL Indore, said that his firm would be laying 2-3 km long optical fibre cable for the purpose. Also, we will be installing a temporary tower near the venue and also be providing 100 MBPS bandwith for the same, added he. Also, the MPEB has been asked to supply power to the tune of 6000 KW load for the event, which will be held at Labh Ganga. Several other related issues were discussed during a review meeting of the officials concerned, which was held here on Saturday.

Similarly, the National Highway 03 will be responsible for finishing the ongoing road construction work well before the event which will be held on 28-30 October. Indore Municipal Corporation (IMC) has promised to complete the beautification work on the road, connecting the city airport to the venue. Indore Development Authority ( IDA) has agreed to provide excellent infrastructure facilities by repairing the road.

Presiding over the review meeting on the eve of the Global Investors' Summit which was held here on Saturday, the additional chief secretary of state, PK Dash, said, "This is going to be a very important event in the state. Hence we have to make every possible effort to keep our guests in good spirit."

Talking to TOI, the additional chief secretary, PK Dash said, "Some of the physical work for the event, construction of roads in particular, was delayed due to the incessant rains. However, I'm sure the work will gather momentum now and we have enough time to complete the preparations for the event. Also, we have already booked 900 rooms in various city-based hotels for providing accommodation to the guests."

There will be nearly 1500 guests which are likely to turn up for the event. It includes nearly 200 foreign delegates and a total of 1500 delegates, which will be representing 500-600 companies. Some of the big industrialists that are likely to attend the three-day event include Adi Godrej, Shashi Ruiya and Anil Ambani.

While a musical programme will be held on the 28 October evening, the inaugural day of the event, the dinner for delegates would be hosted at Sayaji hotel on the day. Also, arrangements are being made to host the dinner for the delegates at Pipliyahana Regional Park, which is owned by IMC, on the following day.

Final shape of the preparatory work will be given on 30 September, whereas October 15 has been fixed as the deadline for completion of entire preparations for the event. Moreover, it has been decided to hold the review meeting on a weekly basis at Indore and efforts will be made to invite the state chief minister, Shivraj Singh Chouhan, to review one such meetings, said a person familiar with the development. The state industries minister, Kailash Vijayvargiya, has already held one such review meeting in past.
