Led by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, the roadshow attracted over 15 companies across Global Capability Centres (GCCs), electronics manufacturing, logistics and industrial development. Several memorandums of understanding were signed, including with LG, Aon, MetLife and Table Space, as the state continued its investment outreach to strengthen industrial growth and attract large-scale private sector investments.
The Uttar Pradesh government has received investment proposals worth more than INR 50,000 crore during the Uttar Pradesh Global Growth Dialogue 2026 held in Bengaluru in the past week. The investment outreach programme, led by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, brought together global corporations, Global Capability Centre (GCC) operators, technology firms, infrastructure developers and institutional investors as the state continued its efforts to attract large-scale investments across key sectors.
According to the state government, the event resulted in investment proposals from more than 15 companies, with memorandums of understanding signed across industrial development, GCCs, electronics manufacturing and logistics. Companies including LG, Aon, MetLife and Table Space entered into agreements with the state, while TeamLease signed a non-financial agreement to support talent development for GCCs in Uttar Pradesh.
Addressing investors during the roadshow, Adityanath highlighted Uttar Pradesh's infrastructure expansion and industrial ecosystem. He cited the state's network of expressways, metro rail systems operating in seven cities, the Eastern and Western Dedicated Freight Corridors, the Varanasi-Haldia National Waterway, and five international and 11 domestic airports. He also noted that commercial flight operations had commenced at Noida International Airport earlier this month, while work on five additional airports is underway.
The Chief Minister said Uttar Pradesh currently offers a land bank of approximately 75,000 acres backed by 36 sector-specific policies. He added that industrial and logistics clusters are being developed at 27 locations along expressways to support manufacturing, warehousing and commercial investment. The government also outlined its ambition to develop 40 million sq ft of Grade A office space and establish 500 GCCs by 2031.
Highlighting the state's workforce, Adityanath said Uttar Pradesh produces nearly 200,000 STEM graduates annually and is home to two Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs), one Indian Institute of Management (IIM), three state technical universities and an extensive vocational education network. He said the government is strengthening industry-ready skills to meet emerging technology requirements.
The Chief Minister also pointed to improvements in agriculture and industrial activity over the past nine years. According to the government, the state's agricultural growth rate has increased from 8% to 18%, while the number of large industrial units has grown from around 14,000 to more than 33,000. Through five agricultural universities and 89 Krishi Vigyan Kendras, farmers are being connected with training programmes and markets.
The Bengaluru roadshow forms part of Uttar Pradesh's wider investment mobilisation campaign aimed at attracting domestic and international capital before its next investor summit. Officials said the agreements reflect continued investor interest in the state's industrial, technology and logistics sectors as it seeks to strengthen its position as a major manufacturing and business destination.
