The Petroleum Minister of India, Hardeep Singh Puri, highlighted the country's evolution into a 'Deep Tech Hub' driven by government reforms aimed at promoting innovation and entrepreneurship. This transformation has empowered Indian students with PhDs from global universities to establish cutting-edge startups in India, marking a shift from working for multinational companies to creating their own ventures. The minister emphasized the significant progress made in the energy sector, particularly in Green Hydrogen, where Indian PSUs and startups showcased innovative technologies. The government's initiatives, including the National Deep Tech Startup Policy, are spurring innovation in critical areas like semiconductors, AI, and space tech, propelling India's position as a technological powerhouse. Puri underscored the reversal of brain drain as Indian talent increasingly opts to stay in India or return from abroad to contribute to the country's innovation ecosystem. The growth of India's startup ecosystem and the focus on nurturing talent in deep tech domains are poised to solidify India's position as a global hub for technological advancement.
