about the event
Following the successful 2023 convention marking the 30th Anniversary of the Indian American International Chamber of Commerce, the IAICC 2025 Convention is set to take place at a crucial juncture in the US political landscape. The change in presidential administration, coupled with an uncertain economic outlook, presents new opportunities and challenges for the evolving relationship between the US and India, as well as the broader business community. While the US-India relationship continues to strengthen due to evolving geopolitical realities, it is crucial to assess the economic implications of the new administration’s priorities.
The business communities in both the US and India face uncertainties stemming from the broad economic landscape and potential policy changes under the new administration. These changes may impact various sectors, including AI, Science & Technology, Security & Defense, Energy, Infrastructure, Environmental Sciences, Health & Pharmaceuticals, Nuclear and Space Technology, Agriculture, and Education.
The two-day event in Washington, DC, will offer an invaluable opportunity to assess and understand the impacts of the policy changes by the new administration that impact the growing synergy between the US and India, while also impacting collaborations with the rest of the world. It will also focus on strategies and approaches the business community can adopt to navigate policy changes and economic uncertainties. Thus, the convention’s primary aim is to analyze the opportunities and challenges that will emerge by the time the new administration finishes three months in office and propose strategies that will allow businesses to succeed in a very dynamic and challenging landscape consisting of political and economic changes.
High-level dignitaries from the United States Government are expected to attend, including key leaders from various US public sector (Federal, State, and Local) agencies, representatives of SBA, MBDA, OSDBU, and experts in Acquisition & Mentor Protégé programs. Additionally, key government representatives, thought leaders, and industry executives from India and other countries will be present to share their insights and expertise.
