Bangalore:  The first capital-raising summit of its kind in India is gearing to kick off on December 13th and 14th 2010 at the ITC Maratha in Mumbai. The CHIME Investment Summit 2010 is hosting key industry and government representatives from China, India and the Middle East under one roof to explore the scope for driving investments across the new Silk Road.

An extensively pre-qualified and invite only list of leading global investors have the opportunity to meet industry leaders from an equally matched investee list, proposing some of the most lucrative investment opportunities in the world. The economies of the emerging markets are geared for new business opportunities as the lingering effects of the financial crisis wears off in the rest of the world. This exclusive investor driven initiative is the key to unlocking that potential.

The summit combines a cutting edge conference programme with investor driven interactive roundtable sessions and one to one private business meetings, in a networking environment optimal for a truly integrated experience.

Up to 25 companies will have access to up to 100 of the most extensively pre-qualified emerging market investors, with a minimum investment budget of US$80 million and or assets under management. Now more than ever, companies both private and public, are turning to the emerging markets of Greater China, India and the Middle East to access some of the most resilient and dynamic investors in the world. Some past naseba event speakers include:

• Ron Chandiramani, President, Al Midas Group of Companies

• Dr. Sascha T. Djumena, Senior Country Officer, The World Bank

• Zulfi Hydari, Co-Founder, HBG Private Equity

• John Sfakianakis, Chief Economist, Banque Saudi Fransi – Credit Agricole

naseba’s strategic alliances with powers such as HH Prince Bandar bin Saud bin Khaled bin Munammad Al Saud in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has enabled the business information company to expand its reach and host the most efficient and business-conducive ‘capital raising’ initiatives in the world.

With some of the leading media and association partners on board, the CHIME Investment Summit 2010 is set to re-evaluate the investment landscape of China, India and the Middle East and provide a unique business platform optimal for deal-flow opportunities.
