The U.S.-India Strategic Partnership Forum ( USISPF) on Friday announced that Kumar Mangalam Birla, Chairman of the Aditya Birla Group, has joined the Executive Committee of its Board of Directors.
“It is an honor to join the USISPF Executive Committee. In a short span, USISPF has become a strong force in shaping and strengthening the strategic and economic ties between the United States and India. Its work in fostering dialogue, collaboration, and trust between the two nations has made a meaningful difference,” said Birla.
He added, “The U.S.-India partnership is among the most consequential partnerships in the world, and I have long believed that when our two nations come together with purpose and clarity, they can shape the arc of global commerce and innovation for the better.”
In its statement, USISPF highlighted that the Aditya Birla Group is the largest Indian greenfield investor in the United States, with investments exceeding USD 15 billion. The group operates in 15 states across sectors such as metals, carbon black, and chemicals.
Birla was also recently honoured with the Global Leadership Award at the 2025 USISPF Leadership Summit held in Washington, D.C.
John Chambers, Chairman of USISPF, said, “I was honored to present the 2025 Global Leadership Award to Mr. Birla, who is a leading figure of the Indian business community. Mr. Birla joining the Executive Committee will help steer USISPF to new horizons and uncharted paths, as we continue to grow and define this accelerated partnership.”
Other USISPF members welcomed Birla’s appointment. Shantanu Narayen, Chair and CEO of Adobe and Vice Chair of the USISPF Executive Committee, said, “His visionary leadership and transformative impact on global business make him an invaluable addition to our efforts in strengthening the U.S.-India partnership.”
USISPF noted that the Aditya Birla Group is India’s third-largest conglomerate, with leadership across sectors including cement, chemicals, metals, textiles, fashion, and financial services. The group’s growth, it added, is supported by a meritocratic culture and a global workforce of 180,000 employees.
