Under the leadership of Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, the state has signed 19 Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) worth Rs. 14.5 lakh crore in investments. These agreements will create approximately 15 lakh new job opportunities in the state.
Announcing the agreements, Fadnavis stated that Maharashtra is the center of India's economic development. These agreements are across various sectors including green energy, food processing, steel manufacturing, IT and data centers, electric vehicles (EVs), shipbuilding, and digital infrastructure. The investments will be made in Mumbai, Ratnagiri, Palghar, Gadchiroli, and Ahmednagar districts, boosting industrial growth and employment generation in these areas.
The agreements were signed in the presence of Industries Minister Dr. Uday Samant. Key companies involved include Carlsberg (Rs. 500 crore, 750 jobs), Yuki Green Energy (Rs. 4,000 crore, 6,000 jobs), BFN Forgings (Rs. 565 crore, 847 jobs), Sumitomo Realty (USD 8 billion, 80,000 jobs), K.

In addition, strategic partnerships have been formed with JICA, Sembcorp Development, and Technical University Munich. Companies like Coca-Cola, IKEA, and Skoda Auto have expressed their interest in further investments in Maharashtra.
The Maharashtra Pavilion was inaugurated by Fadnavis. He said, "Maharashtra is a state of unlimited opportunities. We are the powerhouse of India's future." The MAITRI organization, established last year, has led to an increase in the influx of investors.
Further agreements are expected in the next two days in the fields of AI, quantum computing, fintech, logistics, and renewable energy. This success will be crucial for Maharashtra's economic progress.
