After garnering investment proposals worth over Rs 35 lakh crore at the 2023 Global Investors Summit, the Uttar Pradesh government is intensifying its efforts to attract additional investments, an official statement has revealed.

The state’s investment promotion agency, Invest UP, is spearheading this initiative with a detailed strategy comprising both national and international roadshows aimed at boosting investor engagement. Key international roadshows are planned for Singapore, Japan, South Korea, the UAE, Qatar, and Canada in September and October, while national events will run across major Indian cities from December to January 2026.

The primary objective is to attract fresh investment commitments for the upcoming UP Global Investors Summit in February 2026. A milestone event, the fifth Ground Breaking Ceremony (GBC-5), is scheduled for November 2025, targeting an initial investment of over Rs 5 lakh crore, potentially escalating to Rs 10 lakh crore. The outreach strives to cement UP's status as a global investment hub through direct investor dialogue and policy promotions.
