Membership
CITI Council Membership:
CITI Council provides services and support to more than 300 member organizations and to over 2,500 business professionals in both countries. We work with organizations big and small from all sectors of the Canadian economy as they enter and operate in India. We also guide India investors as they enter the Canadian market so they can operate successfully in Canada.
CITI Council was founded in 1980 as a business association for leaders in Canada-India business, trade and investment and in March, 2016, we established a Canadian Chamber of Commerce in Toronto. We inform Canadians on fast-growing opportunities with India , facilitate the success of Canadian business in India, and advocate on issues affecting Canada-India relations.
