and Solar Modules
New Delhi, August 7, 2023 – The Global India Business Forum (GIBF) played host to a
distinguished delegation from Cuba on the 7th of August at their Delhi office. The primary
objective of this significant event was to facilitate a productive dialogue on various
business opportunities, particularly in the domains of trade and investment, between India
and Cuba.
The delegation from Cuba was led by Mr. Idalberto Perez Cabrera, the Director General of
Industrial Management at the Ministry of Industry (MINDUS). His presence underscored the
Cuban government's commitment to fostering international collaborations for economic growth.
The delegation also included prominent figures from key Cuban enterprises, namely:
Mr. Edel Gomez Gomez, Director General (Head of the Company), Electronic Industry Enterprise
Mr. Eraldo Gonzalez Arias, Director General (Head of the Company), ACINOX (Steel Production
Enterprise)
Mrs. Yaritza Milagro Noa Mora, Deputy Director General, Electronic Industry Enterprise
Mr. Yosbany Reyna Licea, Business Manager, ACINOX (Steel Production Enterprise)
The discussions centered around several critical sectors with potential for bilateral
cooperation, including steel production, electric vehicles (EVs), batteries, and solar
modules. These sectors hold significant promise for both nations, as they align with their
respective economic and environmental goals.
Key Focus Areas:
Steel Production: ACINOX, a major Cuban steel production enterprise, seeks to explore
partnerships and technology collaborations within India's robust steel industry. The
exchange of expertise and resources in this sector has the potential to enhance
infrastructure development and support industrial growth in both countries.
Electric Vehicles (EVs): The emergence of electric mobility presents a unique opportunity
for Cuba and India to collaborate on the development and adoption of EV technologies. As
nations committed to sustainable transportation solutions, the delegation engaged in
discussions to foster knowledge sharing and explore avenues for joint ventures.
Batteries: The advancement of battery technologies is crucial for both energy storage and
electric mobility. Collaborative efforts in battery research, development, and production
could drive innovation, reduce costs, and contribute to the transition towards cleaner
energy sources.
Solar Modules: With a shared focus on renewable energy, the dialogue also encompassed the
solar energy sector. Exploring partnerships in solar module manufacturing, technology
transfer, and solar project implementation could accelerate the adoption of solar energy and
mitigate the effects of climate change.
Facilitating the coordination from the Cuban Embassy, Mr. Abel, ensured the smooth
interaction and communication between the delegation and their Indian counterparts.
The engagement between the Cuban delegation and the Global India Business Forum underscores
the significance of international cooperation in driving economic growth and sustainable
