VDMA India MD, Underscores Coimbatore’s Industrial Depth at Indo–European Business Forum

At the VDMA South India Meet | Growth Opportunities in INDO – EUROPEAN Business Forum, organized by the European Engineering & Manufacturers Federation (VDMA) at Le Meridien Coimbatore, Rajesh Nath, Managing Director, VDMA India, drew attention to the city’s enduring role in shaping #SouthIndia’s manufacturing and #engineering landscape. Opening with a thought-provoking question—“Why Coimbatore?”—he described the city as the “#ManchesterofSouthIndia,” built on a growing ecosystem of #componentmanufacturers, #casting and #forging units, and mid-sized, family-owned enterprises. This #industrial depth, he noted, has given the city both resilience and relevance in #globalmanufacturing value chains. He also highlighted the long-standing presence of #Germancompanies in the region, several of which have been operating successfully in #Coimbatore for decades. Talking about the event, he explained that the forum was a focused platform to bring #localindustries closer to German and #European counterparts, encouraging stronger engagement in #sourcing, #strategicpartnerships, and long-term #investmentopportunities. Reflecting on VDMA’s own evolution, Nath shared that the association has transitioned from being a purely German machinery body to a European Machinery Association, now comprising nearly #400membercompanies from across Europe. This transformation, he emphasized, enhances the organization’s ability to strengthen #IndoEuropean #tradeties and encourage #collaboration within the #machinery and #engineering sectors. #VDMA #IndoEuropeanBusiness #ManufacturingLeadership #MakeInIndia #GlobalManufacturing #EngineeringIndustry #MachineryManufacturing #IndustrialGrowth #TradeAndInvestment #EuropeanIndustry #SouthIndiaManufacturing #BusinessCollaboration ‪@vdma‬
