Vikas Khanduri Appointed Co-Chair – International Affairs (Europe & CIS), PHDCCI

The PHD Chamber of Commerce and Industry is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Vikas Khanduri as Co-Chair, International Affairs Committee (Europe & CIS / Eurasia).

In this strategic role, Mr. Khanduri will focus on strengthening trade, investment, and institutional partnerships between India and key markets across Europe and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). His mandate will include promoting business dialogue, facilitating international cooperation, and supporting Indian enterprises in exploring emerging global opportunities.

A unique strength Mr. Khanduri brings to this role is his deep understanding of the travel and tourism sector. Travel plays a powerful role in international relations by building trust, encouraging cultural understanding, and accelerating business connections. Through structured business travel, trade delegations, knowledge tours, and industry missions, Mr. Khanduri aims to integrate travel as a strategic tool to bridge gaps between markets. These initiatives will help create stronger people-to-people ties, open new business corridors, and convert opportunities into long-term partnerships, making travel an enabler of diplomacy and economic growth.

Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Khanduri said,
"I am honoured to be entrusted with this responsibility. I look forward to working closely with the leadership of PHDCCI to build stronger economic bridges between India and Europe & CIS countries, and to create meaningful opportunities for Indian industry on the global stage. Together, we can explore new opportunities, design meaningful engagements, and create impactful platforms that support international business, tourism, and people-to-people connections."
