Additionally, five sectoral sessions will be conducted to provide detailed insights into the state's industrial policy and to furnish information to industrialists. Subject experts will also be on hand to offer insights into the state's industrial landscape and policies.

During the Regional Industry Conclave, various industrial units are planning to establish plants for a range of products on 644.97 acres of land. The proposed investment for these projects is approximately Rs 8014.94 crore, which is expected to create employment opportunities for more than 12 thousand individuals in the districts of Ujjain and Indore divisions. These units will focus on sectors such as food processing, plastics, pharmaceuticals, medical devices, technical textiles, advanced carbon, cement, oxygen cylinders, ethanol, textiles, apparel, detergents, and more in the aforementioned districts CM Yadav will also inaugurate and dedicate various units at over 12 industrial places in the state in the Regional Industry Conclave.
