Joining Forces to Advance Development
Congress Centre, conference hall B3

The BRICS nations faced unprecedented challenges in 2020. While the negative impact of the COVID-19 crisis remains a priority, the time has now arrived to identify new solutions for development and closer economic cooperation within BRICS. In this year of resurgence, what will India’s presidency offer its partners, and how will its agenda align with the Sustainable Development Goals? What role will the BRICS nations play in the global economic recovery following the pandemic? What lessons can the BRICS business community draw from the pandemic? And as new global challenges emerge, what can be done to keep operations running and ensure sustainable development across all areas of trade and economic cooperation between the nations?
