Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has invited Japanese companies to invest in Uttar Pradesh, highlighting the state’s rapid economic growth and strong industrial potential.
During his visit to Tokyo, Adityanath met business leaders and entrepreneurs, encouraging them to explore opportunities in sectors such as manufacturing, renewable energy, logistics, data centres, semiconductors and green hydrogen. He said Uttar Pradesh offers a large market, a young workforce and improving infrastructure, making it an attractive destination for global investors.
The Chief Minister stressed that the state government has worked to improve law and order and simplify business procedures over the past several years. He said these steps have made it easier for companies to set up and operate businesses in the state.
As part of the visit, Uttar Pradesh signed agreements and received investment proposals worth thousands of crores of rupees. Officials said memoranda of understanding (MoUs) were signed with several companies, which are expected to create jobs and boost industrial development.
One key agreement was signed with Yamanashi Prefecture for cooperation in green hydrogen technology and skill development. Under this partnership, students and technical workers from Uttar Pradesh may receive training in Japan, helping strengthen knowledge exchange between the two regions.
Adityanath said India and Japan share strong economic and strategic ties, and Uttar Pradesh aims to play a bigger role in that partnership. He invited Japanese investors to take advantage of the state’s growing infrastructure, including expressways, airports and industrial corridors.
