Highlighting the state's growing engagement with the technology sector, Founder of Submer, Pol Valls Soler, expressed optimism about future collaboration with Madhya Pradesh. "We are expanding worldwide. One of the key regions for us now is India. We were very glad about the Chief Minister Mohan Yadav's visit to explore how we could collaborate and potentially set up some of our supply chain there, together with commercial presence, and try to help the government make sure that the data centres in the region have the sustainability and technology standards required in today's AI world," Soler said.

He added, "We recently hired a General Manager for India because we have an interesting pipeline in the region... It is a perfect match for what we do... India is one of the fastest-developing regions. It has a lot of potential for what we do because of its sustainability culture."
Reinforcing this collaboration, MP State Electronics Development Corporation Ltd and Submer Technologies signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to boost investment and partnership opportunities in the state. The MoU aims to facilitate the establishment of sustainable data centres, immersion cooling solutions, and green digital infrastructure in Madhya Pradesh.

"PM Modi has resolved that we should have the capacity to provide free housing to as many people as Spain's population. Madhya Pradesh should also contribute a large number to this," CM Yadav said while addressing a gathering in Barcelona.
Emphasising India's evolving global standing, Yadav said, "Today, India is poised to take on the role of a leading partner for European countries. Along with India, Madhya Pradesh is also progressing steadily under PM Modi's leadership."
