India, US, Israel And UAE Launch Private Enterprise Partnership, I2U2 Website
On the sidelines of the 78th session of UNGA, the I2I2 group consisting of India, US, Israel, and UAE, launched a Private Enterprise Partnership and its website.
The I2U2 Group, consisting of India, the US, Israel, and the UAE, has launched a Private Enterprise Partnership to increase awareness of its initiative in business communities and support projects that further its goals. The four-nation grouping also launched its website to enhance cooperation between the member countries and partnerships across the globe. The launch announcement was made during the I2U2 Sherpas meeting in New York on the sidelines of the 78th session of the United Nations General Assembly by India's Ministry of External Affairs Secretary (Economic Relations), Dammu Ravi, Israel's Ministry of Foreign Affairs Director-General Ronen Levi, UAE's Ministry of Foreign Affairs Minister Ahmed Ali Al Sayegh, and US Department of State Under Secretary Jose W. Fernandez.
According to a press release, the I2U2 Private Enterprise Partnership was signed between the US Department of State and the US-UAE Business Council, the UAE-Israel Business Council, and the UAE-India Business Council.
The public-private partnership aims to draw greater awareness to the potential of the I2U2 Initiative, particularly in the seven key sectors, namely water, energy, transportation, technology, space, health, and food security, according to the Memorandum of Understanding.
It also aims to mobilise the private sectors within the I2U2 countries to identify, explore, and participate in specific projects that further the goals of this initiative.
"This new public-private partnership will work to increase awareness of the I2U2 initiative in business communities and support projects and other efforts that further the goals of the initiative," a press release by the US Department of State said.
