2025 investor summit shows PM Modi's commitment to Northeast
As PM Modi put it , 'For us, EAST is not just a direction—it is a vision: Empower, Act, Strengthen, and Transform. This is the guiding framework of our policy for Eastern India.' The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government, under the able leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, aims to correct this 'gap' between the Northeast and New Delhi. PM Modi has carried forward the vision of Atal Bihari Vajpayee, who saw the necessity of integrating the region with the rest of India. Vajpayee set up the DoNER (Development of North Eastern Region) ministry in 2001 – which became a full-fledged ministry in 2004 – to ensure equitable development and progress in these far-flung but strategically important states. The Rising Northeast Investors Summit 2025 , held recently at the Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi, highlighted the current government's determination to ensure that Guwahati, Agartala, Imphal, and Shillong become the Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Hyderabad of the Northeast. India's Northeast has struggled with underdevelopment for decades – due to poor connectivity, cultural isolation, and other crucial factors. Moreover, its proximity to friendly – and not so friendly – neighbours such as China, Myanmar, Bangladesh, Nepal, and Bhutan makes it a geopolitical hotbed. It takes a wise leader to understand the importance of integrating this sensitive region. Also read: India must look beyond Bangladesh. Kolkata-Sittwe-Aizawl corridor is key to Northeast Historical importance Home to over 200 tribes, Northeast India is a culturally, ethnically, and linguistically rich region. I have regularly travelled to Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, and Manipur – both as a Minister of State and a BJP party worker – and have been deeply fascinated by the diversity and traditions I encountered on each visit. On a recent trip to Pasighat in Arunachal Pradesh, I was welcomed warmly by the Adi and Galo tribes. The Galo people presented me with a beautiful handwoven wrap-around half-sari, showcasing the region's cultural heritage. The early years after Independence saw unrest and insurgency due to perceived neglect and alienation, leading to the formation of Nagaland in 1963, and Tripura, Manipur, and Meghalaya in 1972. Arunachal Pradesh and Mizoram became full-fledged states in 1987. The unrest, however, continued. Armed separatist groups such as the United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) and National Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN) created immense disturbance in the region with support from across the border. Under the present NDA government, many challenges related to insurgency have been handled firmly, and any attempt to create conflict will be handled resolutely and responsibly. Migration from Bangladesh, for instance, has continually reshaped Assam and Tripura's demographics. But BJP-backed initiatives such as the National Register of Citizens (NRC) have brought tentative stability. Also read: Northeast a success story not just for BJP but all of India. It's all about getting to end of bell curve Corridor to Southeast Asia Alliances such as the Bay of Bengal Initiative for Multi-Sectoral Technical and Economic Cooperation (BIMSTEC) have increased the strategic importance of the Northeastern Region, which, in line with the Look East /Act East Policy, serves as India's gateway to Southeast Asia. Regional connectivity, through various development corridors such as the India-Myanmar-Thailand Trilateral Highway and the Kaladan Multi-Modal Transit Transport Project, is removing traditional barriers to regional trade. As revealed at the Northeast investors summit, the Modi government plans to boost economic integration with the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and increase trade from $125 billion to $200 billion in the next 10 years. Existing Initiatives such as the Mekong Ganga Cooperation support this vision, aiming to promote tourism, culture, and education between India, Cambodia, Lao PDR, Vietnam, Thailand, and Myanmar. Additionally, the Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, and Nepal (BBIN) Motor Vehicle Agreement, the protocol for which was recently finalised, seeks to provide a seamless way for vehicles to travel across borders, greatly benefiting regional supply chains. Also read: Modi's yoga mat to Nagaland honey, NECTAR is taking Northeast to Japan, Netherlands Boosting infrastructure Infrastructure development in the Northeast has increased by leaps and bounds in the last decade or so. At the 2025 investors summit, my former colleague Jyotiraditya Scindia, who also leads the DoNER ministry, praised PM Modi's commitment to the region. Under the PM's leadership, 'the ministry has created eight high-level task forces across key sectors such as agriculture, sports, investment promotion, tourism, economic corridors, infrastructure, textiles and handicrafts, and animal husbandry, allowing each state to chart its own roadmap,' Scindia said. National highways in the region have expanded to over 16,000 km, while airports have nearly doubled — from nine to 17 — between 2014 and 2024. Waterways, too, are being rapidly developed as an alternative form of transportation. Of special significance is Bogibeel, India's longest rail-road bridge, which was inaugurated with great fanfare by previous governments but kept missing completion deadlines. The work was finally expedited and finished under PM Modi in 2018. I recently travelled from Assam to Arunachal on this bridge, which is an engineering marvel – a magnificent 4.94 km rail and road bridge over the Brahmaputra River, designed to withstand earthquakes. This bridge has significantly reduced travel time and gives increased accessibility to the border areas of Tibet via Arunachal. Another engineering feat is the all-weather Sela Tunnel, which provides year-round connectivity between Guwahati in Assam and Tawang in Arunachal Pradesh. Rail projects worth Rs 88,000 crore will boost connectivity in the region; Assam even got its first Vande Bharat Train in 2023. A portion of the Agartala-Akhaura rail line was inaugurated in November that year. The Tata group, on the other hand, is in the process of setting up a semiconductor plant in Assam, with an investment of Rs 27,000 crore. Regular investor summits are being held all over the country to persuade national and international investors to set up their manufacturing plants in the region. My frequent trips to Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, Mizoram and Meghalaya have deepened my respect for Northeastern people. It is clear that they want to be a part of Viksit Bharat 2047 and do not wish to be left behind. I recently interacted with inspirational youth leader Tana Jiri, whose speech on One Nation, One Election, motivated local youth to play an active role in initiating positive change. An advocate for youth rights, Jiri embodies the young generation that wants to participate in the development of India through initiatives such as Swachh Bharat, Viksit Bharat, and the Apun Bahen Scheme. These youngsters are motivated and open-minded, and are happy to adapt to the three-language policy. It is apparent that our forward-thinking PM Modi has a vision for the greatly neglected Northeast states, which he has referred to as India's 'Ashtalakshmi' – eight manifestations of Goddess Lakshmi. The region, rich in minerals, bamboo, and tea and home to sporting legends such as Mary Kom and Baichung Bhutia, is an emerging hub for aspirational India. Rather than neglecting this important corner of the country, PM Modi has fulfilled his promise of taking India, in its entirety, into the future.

Launitec and Capitalistico: Galo Xavier Lara's Bold Vision to Transform How Hispanics Do Business and Invest in the U.S. from anywhere in the world.
Galo Xavier Lara is leading an educational revolution, reshaping access to business and financial knowledge for Spanish-speaking communities around the world. Phoenix, United States, May 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- What began with a brilliant mind for mathematics has become a mission to democratize digital financial education for Hispanic communities across the globe. Galo interviewed Galo Xavier Lara, a former Ecuadorian Math Olympiad competitor who represented Ecuador in the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) in 2011, now leads and The first is a platform that has already trained more than 1,000 students across Latin America and the U.S. His mission: to teach Spanish speakers how to invest, build businesses, and thrive in the U.S. digital economy. The second is an investment vehicle for people who want a hands-off investment solution in the U.S.—all from home and from anywhere in the world. 'Building an online business is hard, and I had to learn everything on my own—without content in Spanish—making mistakes and figuring it out through trial and error. This not only cost me time, but also huge amounts of money. Anyone can try to self-learn on YouTube or ask AI for help, but in the real world, things are different. I want people to avoid the same mistakes, avoid losing money, and—more importantly—save time. That's why we created Launitec: so others don't have to go through what I did,' says Lara. From Mathematical Theory to Digital Strategy Galo doesn't just teach—he's done it. Using his experience in math and problem-solving, he built a seven-figure eCommerce brand that began as a private label business on Amazon. Today, his online education business, has been recognized by industry leaders like ClickFunnels and Kajabi with awards confirming over $1M in verified digital sales per year. His strength lies in simplifying complex ideas into actionable strategies that resonate with the Hispanic community. Education That Delivers Real Impact Launitec goes beyond pre-recorded lessons. The platform offers live mentorship, hands-on training, and community-based learning. 'It's not about watching videos—it's about building together,' says Lara. Students like Ismael from Ecuador (now generating six-figure income per year) and Kevin Garcés from Miami (investing in U.S. equities successfully from home) are proof of the model's power. 'This wasn't achieved by just reading a book or watching a video, but by consistently being around people who do the same and coach you on your journey,' adds Lara. Galo's Next Bold Move Building on the success of and apps like Lara has now launched bold expansion into capital management. 'The new platform offers done-for-you investment services tailored for Spanish-speaking individuals who prefer to skip the learning curve and let proven systems work for them,' Lara continues. Lara made this move after recognizing that while many people are eager to grow their wealth, not all want to become financial experts—and that's perfectly valid. With his track record of results and community trust, Capitalistico is already showing strong momentum and has the potential to become a cornerstone for accessible wealth-building in the Hispanic world within its first year of launch. 'People kept asking me, 'I have the money, but I don't have the time to learn.' That's when I realized there needed to be a different path. That's how Capitalistico was born—to take people's capital and put it to work in the most proven and successful economy in the world: the United States,' he explains. Scalable Models with Soul Beyond tools, Lara is committed to empowerment. 'Nobody can promise success but with launitec we teach people how to build it and if you don't want to learn—because building great things take time—try Capitalistico and we'll do all the heavy lifting for you.'Press Vasquezcomunicaciones@ CONTACT: Press Contact Jorge Vasquez comunicaciones@ in retrieving data Sign in to access your portfolio Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data

📹 Thiago Silva tells Fluminense: show more character, keep things in-house
This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇧🇷 here. Fluminense lost to Atlético-MG 3-2 at the MRV Arena this Sunday (11th), in a match valid for the eighth round of the 2025 Brasileirão. The Tricolor Carioca opened the scoring with Canobbio, conceded the comeback with goals from Rubens and Junior Santos, managed to equalize with Serna in the last minute of regular time, but Igor Gomes secured the victory for Galo in stoppage time. After the match, still leaving the pitch, Thiago Silva—idol and Tricolor captain—did not mince words as he tried to justify the team's second consecutive defeat of the season. The 'Monster' said the team needs 'more character' and that 'not everything can be exposed.' 'Our performance left something to be desired. We didn't play a great game, but we didn't play such a bad game either, but I think we could have done better. That's what we need to demand from ourselves, to look inside and see what's not working. I think a bit more character, to fight. It's hard to talk. There are some things we need to discuss internally, we can't expose everything. But it's a complicated situation we're going through, we're not performing well and, because of that, things aren't happening. Today, we took the lead, then stopped playing, anyway... It's tough, man, it's tough.' "Um pouco mais de caráter de lutar" e "Não podemos expor tudo"Thiago Silva se mostrou bem incomodado na saída do gramado, após a derrota do Fluminense para o Atlético-MG. — ge (@geglobo) May 11, 2025 In the season, Fluminense has accumulated three defeats in the last five games (Botafogo - 2 x 0, GV San José - 1 x 0, and Atlético-MG - 3 x 2). After eight rounds, the Tricolor Carioca occupies fifth place in the Brasileirão, with 13 points (four wins, one draw, and three losses). In the Conmebol Sudamericana, Fluminense is in second place in Group F with seven points and will seek direct qualification to the round of 16 against Unión Española (05/14) and Once Caldas (05/29). Both matches will be played at Maracanã. 📸 Wagner Meier - 2024 Getty Images
