The UKIBC and GEDU will collaborate closely to encourage and enable ever-more education partnerships, cross-border trade, investment, and knowledge exchange between the UK and India, through the investment and job creation that GEDU is undertaking in the country.
“GEDU is making significant investments into India with a focus on medical education and fintech higher education in GIFT city. We aim to create 2,000 full-time jobs in India by 2030. UKIBC, as a strategic partner, will play a critical role to help us to achieve this,” GEDU Global Education CEO Dr Vishwajeet Rana said.

The GEDU group is playing an increasingly important role in strengthening UK-India education collaborations, which is fundamentally important to the success of the wider bilateral relationship.
