MUMBAI: In the lead up to PM Narendra Modi’s visit to China, Network 18 has launched ‘The India - China Dialogues,’ which is an initiative that aims to mirror the emerging dynamism in bilateral policy making and reflect on the areas of mutual cooperation between India and China.

Topics ranging from trade and investment, technology cooperation and the business prospects with Make in India, will be discussed.
