(MENAFN-IANS) Chennai, Aug 29 (IANS) Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin, who is on a business trip to attract investments for the state, will meet investors in San Francisco on Thursday.

A statement from the Chief Minister's Office (CMO) said that CM Stalin will hold a series of meetings with potential investors and is expected to sign several contracts.

The Chief Minister is on a 17-day business trip to the United States from August 27 to September 14.

During his stay in the US, Prime Minister Stalin is likely to meet with Sundar Pichai, CEO of Google, as well as the heads of several other Fortune 500 companies.

The CMO statement also said that CM Stalin and his wife Durga were received at the airport by Tamil Nadu State Industries Minister TRB Rajaa, Indian Consul General in San Francisco K Srikant Reddy and a horde of DMK supporters.

CM Stalin will also meet the Tamil diaspora on Saturday and will leave for Chicago on September 2.

On September 7, the Prime Minister will address a mass gathering of the Tamil diaspora in Chicago.

He will also meet several entrepreneurs in Chicago and give a talk on the benefits of investing in Tamil Nadu.

Eight months after the Tamil Nadu government signed MoUs worth over Rs 6 billion during the third edition of the Global Investors Meet, Prime Minister Stalin arrived in the United States.

The statement said Prime Minister Stalin is also likely to visit major technology companies, underscoring Tamil Nadu's focus on leveraging cutting-edge technologies and fostering an ecosystem that encourages research and development and high-tech manufacturing.

It may be recalled that since assuming office in May 2021, Prime Minister Stalin had visited the United Arab Emirates, Singapore, Japan and Spain to attract investments in Tamil Nadu.

The CMO said they would list the suggestions received during his US trip.

Tamil Nadu has already emerged as the home of iPhone manufacturing in India, with three major suppliers – Foxconn, Pegatron and Tata Electronics – expanding their operations.

In addition, Bharat FIH, a branch of Foxconn, will soon start assembling Pixel phones and drones for Google.
