This monumental achievement is expected to create 14,208 jobs, revolutionizing the state’s economic landscape.
Unlocking New Opportunities in Infrastructure and Beyond
The tour, which covered Dubai, Madrid, and Barcelona, yielded a plethora of investment proposals across various sectors, including infrastructure, tourism, films, textiles, sports, data analytics, and artificial intelligence. The biggest chunk of investment, worth Rs 5,000 crore, was proposed by Kempolis Oy (AmGreen & Greenko) in the Advanced Biofuels and SAF Projects sector, poised to create 5,000 jobs.
Meanwhile, BNW Developers proposed an investment of Rs 2,750 crore in the Infrastructure sector, likely to generate 3,575 jobs. These investments will not only stimulate economic growth but also provide a significant boost to employment opportunities in the state.
Film Co-Production and Tourism: A New Chapter
The trip also led to the signing of a memorandum of understanding (MoU) between the Spanish Film Commission and Madhya Pradesh to promote film co-production. This collaborative initiative will enable Spanish filmmakers to explore the state’s diverse shooting locations, fostering cultural exchange and creative collaboration.
Gujarat Industrial Policy: A Blueprint for Success
The Gujarat industrial policy of 2020 provides a framework for industries to thrive, identifying 15 thrust sectors such as agro and food processing, semiconductors, aerospace, auto and auto components, electric vehicles, green energy, robotics, and fintech. The policy offers attractive incentives, including capital and interest subsidies, land and infrastructure support, and government formalities.
Sustainable Energy Solutions for Madhya Pradesh
Submer, a pioneering company in the field of sustainable energy, has committed to investing in construction, research and development, and technical areas in the state.

This initiative is expected to deliver significant energy savings, with technology capable of reducing energy consumption by up to 45% and water conservation by up to 90%.
In conclusion, Madhya Pradesh’s trip to the UAE and Spain has opened up new avenues for growth, job creation, and economic development. As the state continues to forge partnerships with international entities, it is poised to emerge as a hub for innovation and entrepreneurship.
