Explore opportunities in India: FM to IT companies
SUSTAINING INDIA'S GROWTH momentum for the next two decades calls for a fresh approach grounded in bold reforms, stronger domestic capacities, renewed institutional partnerships and adaptive strategies suited for the evolving global landscape, finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman said at an event in San Francisco.
Speaking at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University, the minister said the last two Budgets have laid the groundwork for this transformation, with a clear multi-sectoral policy agenda.
Scaling up manufacturing is essential to absorb a youthful workforce, reduce import dependencies and build competitive global supply chains, she said.
Even though the recent global developments appear "formidable", they are full of possibilities, she said, adding that India and the US can collaborate in several sectors, including semiconductors, power generation, quantum computing and pharmaceuticals.
