Germany eyes collaboration with Indian startups after China alarm

China’s harsh covid-era restrictions also proved an obstacle to German firms, said the official.

The city of Berlin, a leading hub for German startups, is particularly interested in building collaborations with Indian startups. AsiaBerlin, an initiative set up and funded by the government of Berlin, will send a delegation of German startups to India for collaborations with the Indian startup ecosystem.

The delegation of startups will visit New Delhi and Bengaluru and is expected to participate in the Bangalore Tech Summit. Under a similar programme, the Berlin government hopes to send more founders and research institutions to India next year in an effort to deepen collaborations between the startup ecosystems.

A case for loafing about

Taylor Swift apparently spends 60% of her time talking about bread (\"it's a loaf story,\" to quote her)—as I learnt from a reel I came across while trying to avoid getting down to the real work of the day (or should I say loafing about)—and it made me wonder when we became so obsessed about what came out of a packet and was eaten when we were sick.
