Quick recovery from financial crisis


In the past two years, the world economy has suffered extensively from the financial crisis and particularly Europe has been affected by it. However, statistics show that the European economy is recovering faster than expected.

For example: Germany is currently experiencing one of its strongest economic growth periods in the past twenty years. Business confidence is at an all-time high”, so Michael Pfeiffer, Chief Executive of Germany Trade and Invest. Other European countries show similar developments. The Netherlands are consistently trumping with efficient innovative technologies, in water management, entertainment, clean technology and IT. Belgium protrudes with excellent academic research facilities and France has a very vibrant energy and transport sector.


From Europe to India


India has been particularly important for the fast recovery of the European economy markets-europewith many Indian companies (such as Jet Airways, Hexaware Technologies, Dabur India and Ensoft Informatics Private) recently having invested in Europe and Germany in particular. The India-EU Trade and Investment Agreement is expected to further facilitate and promote bilateral trade soon by removing trade-barriers in investment and goods and services across all sectors of the economy.


From India to (Northern Europe)


Especially the North-Western part of Europe appeals to many businesses with an exceptional infrastructure and facilities, market liquidity and visibility, high research and development investments as well as investments in education and thus an excellent workforce, high productivity rates, innovative power, a high quality of life, and the multinational, if not global character of most companies.
