I am so pleased to announce that last week on August 12, 2021, the Georgia Indo-American Chamber of Commerce (GIACC) and the Gwinnett Chamber of Commerce (GCOC,) formalized a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to collaborate and promote business opportunities between India and Gwinnett.

GIACC’S mission is to promote and foster trade, business, financial or professional interests and commercial relations between India and the United States, including specifically Georgia. In addition to furthering collaboration, the agreement includes partnering on at least two events per year that will help connect members of both chambers; and supporting delegations and visits by business persons to the two party’s regions. Further, the Georgia Indo-American Chamber has a seat on the Gwinnett Chamber’s board of directors.

The event was attended by the Indian Consul General Atlanta, Dr. Swati Kulkarni, who noted that over 30,000 Indian Americans proudly call Gwinnett their home. GA State Senator Sheikh Rahman, also in attendance, noted that according to the 2020 U.S. Census data released earlier that day, Georgia experienced a 53% increase in the Asian American Pacific Islander population. The signing of the MOU at the cusp of celebration of India’s 75th Independence Day on August 15, 2021 bodes well for GIACC, as it continues to plan events, and formalize partnerships and alliances that promote business in the Indo-US/Georgia/Gwinnett corridor.
