Inaugurated by Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel, the summit is expected to attract key figures, including Union Minister of Youth Affairs and Sports, Dr. Mansukh Mandaviya, and prominent leaders from the Patidar community. The event spans a vast exhibition area of 100,000 square meters and is designed to highlight the role of youth in driving economic, social, and industrial advancements.
The summit builds on the legacy of the Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit, which was launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in 2003. CM Patel noted that the Patidar community is inspired by this initiative and aims to set a new course for industrial and social progress through their summit.
Key discussions will focus on industrial growth, green energy initiatives, and the overarching goal of achieving a developed India by 2047, coinciding with the centenary of Indian independence. The event will also feature the launch of the Sardar Patel International Business Organization (SPIBO) website and discussions on the upcoming GPBS-2026 in the USA.
Union Minister Dr. Mandaviya emphasized the Patidar community's resilience and dedication, highlighting their transition from rural to urban settings and their contributions to national unity. The summit is seen as a pivotal moment for the community, encouraging the youth to seize economic opportunities and drive collective progress.
As India aims to become a $30 trillion economy by 2047, the summit represents a crucial platform for collaboration and innovation among the Patidar community, reflecting the broader goals of economic transformation and social upliftment.
