Among the important initiatives taken recently was the meeting of the India-Italy Joint Commission for Economic Cooperation which was held its 7th meeting in Rome in November 2006, where it was decided to set up a Joint Working Group to improve bilateral cooperation in infrastructure.
It was also decided to promote Brand India in Italy and Brand Italy in India through business events and exchange of business delegations. The dialogue was carried forward as a prelude to Premier Prodi's visit when Ms Emma Bonino had a bilateral meeting with Mr. Kamal Nath in New Delhi in January 2007.
The major sectors of bilateral cooperation envisaged include: infrastructure, IT, telecommunications, industrial machinery, healthcare, textiles and garments, gems and jewellery, fashion design, leather, food processing, energy, automobile and auto components, and tourism.
