WASHINGTON: United States President Barack Obama has said that he might visit India next year if he will be invited for the Global Entrepreneurship Summit (GES).
“I’ll try to stop by, if I’m invited,” Obama said in his address to GES at Stanford University in California.
GES is a personal initiative of Obama to bring entrepreneurs from across the globe on one platform.
After meeting Obama at the White House early this month, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had announced that India would host the next GES.
The Obama Administration has thanked India for continuing Obama’s legacy.
“It is really fitting that we are all gathered here for this, the final gathering of the GES under President Obama. Butit will continue, and as you all know, will take place next year in India,” Secretary of State John Kerry had said in his address to the summit on Thursday.
The first GES was held in the US in 2010.
