It Was Great to See India Host an Inclusive G20 Event: Bill Gates to PM Modi

New Delhi: During their candid interaction billionaire investor and philanthropist Bill Gates and Prime Minister Narendra Modi discussed the 2023 G20 Summit, which concluded last year under India's presidency. 

Elaborating on the G20's core purposes and objectives, PM Modi said, “We had extensive discussions before the G20 Summit and as you might have seen, the Summit's proceedings took a lot of turns. I believe we have now aligned with G20's core purposes & objectives, bringing them to the mainstream. I hope your first-hand experience echoes this sentiment.”

Highlighting the inclusive nature of the grand G20 event hosted by India, Bill Gates said, "G20 is way more inclusive and so it is fantastic to see India hosting it - really raised things like digital innovations and how the south-south collaboration can be far more than just the dialogue with the north.”
