"Every state in India has a different opportunity. So whether it's green energy, education, agritech, mobility, every state can complement some way or the other to different states in Australia. So I think the opportunities are across various sectors, just not only one," she said.

Harshad Kale, Founder and Director, Authorised Representative, said the forum reflected the growing depth of India-Australia relations and highlighted several areas for long-term cooperation.

He highlighted the forum reflected the deepening strategic partnership between the two nations, with discussions spanning infrastructure, uranium cooperation, higher education and investment.

"We would encourage all the Australians to take that opportunity and also help India grow and Australia grow together by getting great returns for Australians and capital intrusion for India," he said.

Kale noted that Australia is increasingly viewing India as a strategic economic partner, while India's rapid growth presents attractive investment opportunities for Australian businesses and investors.

Stressing Australia is looking for strategic partners, he said "India is one which can provide that and the growth for both will be the best," he added. (ANI)
