About the Office

Building the institutional infrastructure of cross-border trade.

Sangeet Sejpal serves as Hon. Trade Commissioner (Mauritius–India) under the Indian African Trade Council (IATC). The office operates as a strategic platform for trade ecosystems, economic diplomacy and cross-border opportunity development between India, Mauritius, Africa and emerging global markets.

Practice

Strategy, diplomacy and ecosystem architecture.

The office combines institutional credibility with operational fluency — moving between councils, governments, financial centres and enterprise to translate bilateral intent into durable, repeatable trade outcomes.

Work spans Mauritius–India connectivity, India–Africa corridor development, market entry ecosystems and the convening of delegations, forums and strategic missions.

The throughline is ecosystem thinking — designing relationships, structures and pathways that compound across institutions, geographies and decades.
