In the area of regular migration and in recognition of the significant role of the private sector in India- EU migration, a one-and-a-half day seminar on India-EU Talent Mobility was organized by the ILO under the India - EU Cooperation and Dialogue on Migration and Mobility Project.

The seminar focused on three significant and growing business sectors in the India- EU corridor - information technology, automotives and start-ups. The objective of the seminar was to bring the industry’s perspective to the attention of Indian and European policymakers.

This two-day seminar involved more than 100 representatives from the three focus sectors and provided the governments and private sector an opportunity to gain better understanding of the implications of policy on talent mobility. It offered a chance to exchange ideas, practical solutions, the challenges and good practices and policies.

Recommendations from this seminar for current and future challenges in the area of talent mobility were presented during the Seminar on Sharing of Good Practices on Migration Governance India and EU in July 2019.
