Introduction

Over the years, the State Government has taken a number of steps towards accelerating investment

activity in Haryana. In 2015, the State came out with the Enterprises Promotion Policy to provide

lucrative incentives to new investors in Haryana. The Happening Haryana Global Summit held in 2016

further boosted the investment momentum in the State. As a result, Haryana established itself as a

leading investment destination in India. It is now imperative that in order to usher in a new era of

economic growth, current market trends and the expert advice/feedback from industry leaders in

Haryana, should be factored in to achieve long-term prosperity.

Government on various economic issues and development strategies, advocacy on policy matters and

other issues of economic development targeted at prosperity and job creation. The EAC will guide the
