Odisha to hold 2-day investment roadshow in New Delhi from tomorrow

Bhubaneswar: The Odisha government will hold a two-day investment outreach programme in New Delhi from August 7 as part of its continued efforts to deepen industrial partnerships and attract high-value investments.

Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi is scheduled to lead the roadshow in the national capital. The high-level delegation will include Industries, Skill Development & Technical Education Sampad Chandra Swain and other senior officials of the State government.

The outreach will engage leading industrial houses, MSMEs, downstream enterprises and business associations across sectors central to Odisha’s next phase of industrial growth.

Odisha Food Pro 2026

As part of the roadshow, the state government, in association with the ASSOCHAM, will organise the Odisha Food Pro 2026 in New Delhi on Friday. The sector-focused roadshow will bring together leading food processing companies, investors, MSMEs, industry associations and sectoral experts to showcase Odisha’s diverse agricultural and marine resource base, processing ecosystem, logistics connectivity, policy framework and investment opportunities across the farm-to-market value chain.

The programme will feature industry experience sharing, release of a Knowledge Report on the scope of the food processing sector in Odisha, sharing of investment MoUs and direct interactions between the state leadership and prospective investors. It will seek to attract investments across processing, packaging, cold chain and other value-added activities while creating wider market opportunities for Odisha’s agricultural, marine and food products.

The larger objective is to connect local enterprises and producers with national and global value chains and position Odisha as a preferred food processing destination.

Beyond food processing, the New Delhi outreach will focus on developing deeper industrial value chains around Odisha’s major anchor investments.

On the day, the State leadership will hold one-on-one interactions with industry leaders and focused group meetings with major industrial groups and their ecosystem partners. Discussions will cover opportunities in stainless-steel downstream manufacturing, chemicals and petrochemicals, while also reviewing the progress of existing and proposed investments in Odisha. Particular emphasis will be placed on identifying implementable projects, strengthening local supplier networks and accelerating the grounding of announced investments.

Industry Roundtables

On August 8, the delegation will also visit a manufacturing facility in Greater Noida to gain insights into advanced manufacturing practices and explore potential areas of industrial collaboration in white goods and consumer appliances.

The delegation will thereafter participate in three focused industry roundtables in Greater Noida. The first will bring together leading aluminium downstream companies, to explore opportunities for greater value addition in aluminium products, components and engineering applications. The second roundtable will engage textile and apparel companies, showcasing opportunities arising from Odisha’s expanding textiles, apparel and technical-textiles ecosystem, supported by a growing skilled workforce, industrial infrastructure and policy support.

The third roundtable, organised with the Indian Industries Association, will engage engineering manufacturers and MSMEs to explore opportunities arising from Odisha’s large metals, mining, power and manufacturing base. Discussions will cover industrial components, fabrication, capital goods, clean-energy equipment and opportunities for building stronger local vendor and supplier networks.
