GES 2017: Ivanka Trump on Tuesday heaped praise
on Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the
Global Entrepreneurship Summit 2017. While highlighting the extraordinary rise
of PM Modi from humble background to the prime minister of world’s largest
democracy, the US first daughter and official advisor of her father US
President Donald Trump, Ivanka said, “…And thank you, Prime Minister Modi, for
joining us here today – and for all that you are doing to build India as a
thriving economy – a beacon of democracy – and a symbol of hope to the world.
What you are achieving is truly extraordinary.”
“From
your childhood selling tea to your election as India’s Prime Minister, you’ve
proven that transformational change is possible. And now you are bringing that
promise to hundreds of millions of people across your country. Thank you,” she
said.
Ivanka
said she is confident that India will continue to grow under the leadership of
PM Modi. “Through your own enterprise, entrepreneurship, and hard work, the
people of India have lifted more than 130 million citizens out of poverty – a
remarkable improvement, and one I know will continue to grow under the
leadership of Prime Minister Modi.”
“All of
you are helping India’s middle class reach its goal of nearly 500 million
people by 2030. You have opened new universities across the Country. Your
doctors and scientists are discovering medical cures and life-saving
technologies. Your engineers and architects have built modern wonders that
grace your skies. And Indian spacecraft have traveled to the Moon and to Mars.”
India is
hosting the Global Entrepreneurship for the first time. Ivanka said the people
of India “inspire” her. She also noted that the GES highlights the strong
relationship shared by the US and India.
“This is
the first time India has hosted the Global Entrepreneurship Summit. It is a
symbol of the strengthened friendship between our two peoples, and the growing
economic and security partnership between our two nations. As President Trump
said earlier this year: India has a true friend in the White House,” Ivanka
said.
Ivanka
had special praise for the historical city of Hyderbabad- the city known for
pearls and biriyani and now transformed into a global tech centre.
“It’s
wonderful to be in this ancient city (Hyderabad) brimming with transformative
technology – now, your tech centers may even outshine your world-famous
Biryani. CEOs like Microsoft’s
Satya Nadella went to school right here in Hyderabad. Just a few kilometers
away, T-hub’s brand new facility is set to open next year – and will become the
largest incubator in Asia.
“In this
“City of Pearls” the greatest treasure is YOU – the dreamers, innovators,
entrepreneurs, and leaders who never give up – never abandon your aspirations –
and always strive for a better tomorrow,” Ivanka said.
