The Indo-Canada Chamber of Commerce (ICCC) hosted a successful day of cross-border collaboration on June 8th, welcoming a distinguished business delegation from the PHD Chamber of Commerce and Industry (PHDCCI), led by Dr Ranjeet Mehta. A major highlight of the session was the enthusiastic support across public sectors, bringing together representatives from all three levels of Canadian government: the federal level through Global Affairs Canada | Affaires mondiales Canada, the provincial level via the Ontario Government | Gouvernement de l’Ontario, and the municipal level through the City of Toronto.
During the event, ICCC President Prashant Srivastava and Dr Ranjeet Mehta discussed the shifting momentum in India–Canada relations, emphasizing that consistent business exchanges turn high-level policy into real market success. In recognition of these deepening connections, the ICCC proudly presented a certificate of appreciation to Dr Ranjeet Mehta on behalf of Hon'ble Minister Nina Tangri, honoring his leadership in building stronger bilateral trade ties.
The session was further enriched by insights from guest speakers Mr. Deepak Anand, Parliamentary Assistant, Legislative Assembly of Ontario, Ms. Cheska Catilo, Trade Commissioner, Global Affairs Canada, and Ms. Fariba Niroui, PMP, Consultant, City of Toronto. Following the discussion, over 50 ICCC members engaged in one-on-one B2B matchmaking meetings with the visiting PHDCCI delegates to explore joint ventures and investment strategies, underscoring the immense progress possible when government and private industry work toward shared economic goals.
