Further, Giriraj Singh met with the leadership of Asahi Kasei Corporation, a USD 20 billion conglomerate in fibres, industrial materials, and specialty textiles. The company expressed keen interest in investing under the 'Make in India for the World' initiative.

The day concluded with a roadshow and industry interaction at the Indian Embassy in Tokyo, celebrating the India–Japan partnership with a focus on the textile sector.
