The Washington, D.C. based US-India Business Council (USIBC) is hosting many of the events for the corporate delegates in India. The USIBC's Board of Directors includes Frank Wisner, former Ambassador to India, currently representing the American International Group Inc (AIG), one of the largest insurance companies in the US. Also on the Council's board is Joseph W. Sutton of Enron, a Houston-based natural gas giant whose power projects in India have come under attack from environmental and community groups. Others on the board include Peter Howell of banking conglomerate Citigroup, Dinesh Keskar of Boeing India, Boyd Montgomery of UNOCAL and Charles Saris of Pfizer pharmaceuticals, to name a few.

The large corporate delegation accompanying Clinton includes former ambassador to India Frank Wisner, Lou Gestner, IBM's Chairman, Arun Netraveli, President of Bell Laboratories/Lucent Technologies, John Smith, CEO of General Motors, Kenneth Lay, Chairman and CEO of Enron and General Electric's CEO John Welch.

Many US corporations have increasingly come under fire from Indian activists, whose concerns range from human rights to the environment. Last year, Enron, the single largest foreign investor in India, was implicated in human rights violations in India by a Human Rights Watch. A lawsuit was recently filed against Union Carbide by victims of one of the worst industrial disasters in history fifteen years ago in Bhopal, India. Warren M. Anderson, chairman of the Union Carbide Corporation during the1984 Bhopal chemical disaster has apparently gone into hiding to avoid a summons to appear in a Manhattan federal court as part of civil proceedings against him and the company.

The following is a list of participants attending events hosted by the US-India Business Council during the Clinton visit, and includes corporate executives from both India and the US.
