The delegation, led by Union Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal, will sign Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) during the four-day visit from August 24 to 27. FICCI Director General Jyoti Vij, who spoke about the mission, stated that the collaboration would extend to traditional sectors as well.\n\nThe 200-plus member delegation, which includes companies and industry representatives from various fields such as manufacturing, clean energy, steel, automotive, financial services, healthcare, and start-ups, will hold at least as many business-to-business meetings as networking sessions and site visits. These visits to manufacturing plants, innovation centers, and other facilities will provide businesses with direct exposure to Japanese technologies and innovations.\n\nSeveral Indian startups are part of the delegation and will use the visit to understand Japan's innovation ecosystem and identify potential areas for future partnerships. The MoUs are expected to emerge during and after the visit, as the delegation aims to deepen bilateral business ties and address the specific priorities of Japanese businesses.",
