Emerging technologies will define next phase of India-US ties: Ambassador Kwatra

Emerging technologies like AI and semiconductors will spearhead India-US cooperation, according to Ambassador Vinay Mohan Kwatra. India is becoming a key player in global value chains, attracting investment for production diversification. The nation's economy, projected to reach $7 trillion by 2030, is an "indispensable anchor" for global growth amidst uncertainty. Kwatra highlighted "Atmanirbhar Bharat" as a strategy for globally competitive manufacturing, not isolation.
