“USIBC has had a successful partnership with Gutenberg Communications for over eight years. Gutenberg’s team brings a strong understanding of both the U.S. and India markets and their support has helped us amplify our message and effectively communicate USIBC’s key role in promoting the U.S.-India economic relationship,” said Diane Farrell, Acting President, USIBC.
USIBC is the premier business advocacy organization representing America’s top companies investing in India, joined by global Indian companies. Gutenberg also supported the USIBC during President Obama’s previous visit to India in 2010 and most recently represented the Council at the 7th Vibrant Gujarat Summit 2015 earlier this month.
