Kolkata: US entrepreneurs are positive about investing in West Bengal, which holds a lot of opportunity, but they want transparency and equal opportunities, US envoy to India Timothy J. Roemer said here Wednesday.
Refering to his discussions on the state’s business environment with representatives of the American Chamber of Commerce here Tuesday, he said: “People working on the ground are positive.”
“At the same time, they are saying what American businesses say throughout India and the world – that there should be transparency, rule of law, equal opportunities and rewards for risks. I think once these things are in place, there can be a positive outcome,” Roemer told reporters.
“The state has a lot of investment opportunities in mining, infrastructure and other business areas,” he added.
