India-Slovakia relations have entered a new phase with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s recent visit to Slovakia. Both countries are committed to strengthening their economies through the development of trade, investment, industrial collaboration and workforce development.
For businesses in Slovakia and throughout Europe, closer ties between India and Slovakia will provide many opportunities for growth by getting qualified talent for their workforce from India.
A New Chapter in India-Slovakia Relations
India and Slovakia have had diplomatic relations for many years, but the recent visit of Prime Minister Narendra Modi brought both countries together with a renewed focus of reinforcing economic and industrial cooperation. Prime Minister Narendra Modi discussed with the Slovak leadership issues related to manufacturing, logistics, trade and investment.
As the international supply chain is redefined, both countries appear eager to establish stronger business partnerships that will cover the way for sustained growth in both countries.
This stronger relationship will provide businesses with a better opportunity to find new markets, investment opportunities, and solutions to their workforce needs.
Growing Trade and Industrial Cooperation
Slovakia is home to a strong manufacturing sector, particularly automotive and engineering industries. On the other hand India offers a large industrial base and one of the world’s largest skilled talent pools.
With increasing levels of cooperation, businesses in both countries will have the potential for new collaborative opportunities including:
- Partnerships for manufacturing
- Exchanging technologies
- Participating in engineering projects
- Developing supply chains
- Investing in industrial ventures
All of the above-mentioned new opportunities can help improve competitiveness for the two involved countries, as well as support economic growth within both jointly.
What This Means for Employers
Due to the current economic climate, many employers in Slovakia are experiencing difficulty finding qualified employees with respect to the various positions within manufacturing, engineering, logistics and other technical job categories.
In our MD, Mr. Varun Khosla’s words, “With the strengthening of the economic relationship between India and Slovakia, workforce movement will be an important factor going forward. Consequently, employers may have access to a more abundant pool of qualified and skilled international candidates that can help with production, expansion plans and other long-term human resources needs.”
For companies that are struggling with their current recruiting efforts, this will also provide an opportunity for them to develop more efficient and constructive business models with respect to their workforce recruitment.
