The event was followed by an interesting Q&A session. Most of the questions
raised by the audience related to the speed of getting things done and closing the deal in
India. We were glad to be able to answer all their queries successfully.
After which, Mentor on Road had one to one meetings about trade and investment in India with several American companies present in the event. We were glad to meet companies that are doing so well by contributing to the society through their unique products and services. We will soon connect them to the Indian companies along with Federal and State level government departments.

St. Louis is an independent city and
major U.S. port in the state of Missouri,
built along the western bank of the Mississippi
River, on the border with Illinois.
The city had an estimated 2016 population of 311,404, and is the cultural
and economic center of the Greater St.
Louis area (home to 2,916,447 people), making it the largest
metropolitan area in Missouri and the 19th-largest in the United States.
Prior to European settlement, the area was a major regional center of Native American Mississippian culture. The city of St. Louis was founded in 1764 by French fur traders Pierre Laclède and Auguste Chouteau, and named after Louis IX of France. In 1764, following France's defeat in the Seven Years' War, the area was ceded to Spain and retroceded back to France in 1800. In 1803, the United States acquired the territory as part of the Louisiana Purchase.
During the 19th century, St. Louis developed as a major port on the Mississippi River. In the 1870 Census, St. Louis was ranked as the 4th-largest city in the United States. It separated from St. Louis County in 1877, becoming an independent city and limiting its own political boundaries. In 1904, it hosted the Louisiana Purchase Exposition and the Summer Olympics.

Mentor on Road has come a long way. We feel blessed to have the opportunity of meeting all the wonderful people on our journey and working on a common goal of bringing the nations, India and the USA closer. On this note, we would like to conclude by saying; one must always practice a gratitude exercise for all the things one is grateful for by the end of the day.
Looking forward to an exciting journey ahead.
Jai Ho! (Let victory be yours)
