Over the last few years, India has made huge strides in its innovation journey. It has not only witnessed innovation-led transformation across sectors, but has also emerged as one of the fastest-growing innovation economies in the world.
Government initiatives for the promotion and adoption of latest innovative technologies have fuelled the growth of the Indian startup space and have helped it become the third largest ecosystem in the world.

However, in the last decade, India has seen an unprecedented transformation in its innovation ecosystem.
Research, innovation & technology are imperatives for the sustainable growth of India and have been playing a key role in the progress of the country. India is one of the leading nations in the world in terms of research, innovation & technology prowess and has taken a huge leap of 35 places in 6 years, from a rank of 81 in 2015 to a rank of 46 in 2021, on the Global Innovation Index.
