Delivered his speech in that swiss resort aimed at drumming up investment in one of the worlds Fastest Growing economies would he highlighted the six fold growth of his countrys g. D. P. Since the last time an indian Prime Minister attended the World Economic forum and that was back in one thousand nine hundred ninety seven the International Monetary fund has forecast seven point four. Percent growth india twenty nineteen beating china with only six point eight percent what a speech also focused heavily on how technologically driven developments like big data pave new roads to prosperity but also reinforce economic divide its the old theme of this years summit is creating a shared future in a fractured weld did he has been for soon and in doubles told us what the indian Prime Minister had to say about that well he said its actually nothing new to situation that were in at the moment where strong men try to control the world its an ongoing topic but it is definitely the one of the forefront for with officials the World EconomicForum Officials at least he said there is certainly three big global challenges right now the first one being Climate Change this was very interesting because its what the chinese also spoke about last year when chinese president president xi jinping fronted the crowd here in davos to a very warm reception. Picking up where the chinese left off also really sticking it to trump he doesnt believe in Climate Change and Narendra Modi says this is something that is one of the Biggest Challenges that needs to be tackled and put it to the record snow here in davos the snow weve all been through today as it slowly melts two of the other big challenges he mentioned terrorism and anti globalists hinting there that trump is another problem for the world. It was beneficial in their reporting from a dub was and donald trump of course expected to attend later this week so these was all planned resorts Economic Forum not just about closing high finance business deals as we heard officials also invite social entrepreneurs from around the world and the idea is that they address the most pressing social and environmental challenges of our day to. Claridges met up with some of them. The trip from japan to the slopes of davos took an eighteen hours this is social entrepreneur masacre gurus first time at the World Economic forum the subjects hes come to talk about are far removed from the usual interests of big business. There are children who dont get eat. Once a day of poor soup morning she having tons of food strong away. Eating and so this is the big gap between a part of war and another part of the door. And thats the reality happening right now this is one of the uncomfortable realities here in a dozen other social entrepreneurs are here to discuss theyre not working to create profit but to bring about social change here from vietnam trying to develop Cost Effective devices which save the lives of children. I see my son myself see the baby dying every day and i thought i want to do something for to gather wood a group of friends so we. We. Invented the. Medical equipment. These social entrepreneurs hope to open the eyes of the big players in the Business World to humanitarian ideas such as making lifesaving medicine affordable and many big leaders are disconnected from everyday the everyday struggles that people face and i think we create an awareness for it i think we were good at integrating. The cause and capitalism and we were sort of a the juxtaposition of that and we we can show them models that can truly work and be sustainable that perhaps it may have even considered it was seen about and theyve made the long journey to the snowy streets of davos to make sure their voices are heard. We are not perfect but we try to. Seek justice and try to bring balance to the world that we live in through our business skills and experience. Muscle gurrey will spend the next four days at the World Economic forum but he feels the long trip was worth it just for the opportunity to push his vision to those who have the means to make it a reality.
