Under his leadership, Maharashtra rose from fifth to first place in industrial development of the country. The state had also hosted the Magnetic Maharashtra event twice to promote investment.</p>
<p>On his trip, CM Fadnavis will have several important meetings and events with global leaders.</p>
<p>CM Fadnavis will be visiting Davos along with a delegation including Industry Minister Uday Samant, along with officials from MIDC, MMRDA, and CIDCO.</p>

<p>CM Fadnavis aims to attract large-scale investments to help Maharashtra achieve its goal of a 1 trillion-dollar economy and create job opportunities. The state has recently announced several new policies, which Fadnavis will discuss during meetings with <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/search/business-articles" target="_blank" rel="none noopener"><strong>business</strong></a> leaders in Davos to further the state's comprehensive development, it said.</p>

<p><strong>Maharashtra to set up 'Innovation City' to boost start-up ecosystem, says Fadnavis</strong></p>
<p>Meanwhile, in an another statement, earlier this week, Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis announced plans to develop an "Innovation City" in the state, following the model of Gujarat&rsquo;s GIFT City. Fadnavis outlined this initiative at a forum focused on start-ups and technology in Mumbai, emphasising the necessity to bolster Maharashtra&rsquo;s role as a leader in India&rsquo;s burgeoning start-up ecosystem.</p>
<p>The new "Innovation City" will serve as a dedicated hub for technology and innovation, providing a fertile environment for start-ups, particularly those in emerging fields such as artificial intelligence (AI). "Just as Gujarat's GIFT City has been developed, we aim to build the Innovation City in Maharashtra even faster," Fadnavis said.</p><p>
