Technology minus democracy creates an environment for a crisis. India is a country that has talent, democracy, market. Such a golden opportunity is rare that India has today.

Modi told the tech CEOs that he had met some of them in the past both in Washington DC in 2023 and in Delhi at different points, and he learnt a lot from all of them, who he called global innovators. He said that their enthusiasm and advice helped in policy formulation. "The advice that you offer, given the world that you work in, you belong to, and whose future you understand, is invaluable." Modi then spoke of initiative on critical and emerging technologies (iCET), the bilateral mechanism with US, as an example of their shared commitment to inclusive innovation.

It has one of the most vibrant digital ecosystems. It has the third largest start up ecosystem. It has the largest talent pool of the young." Modi then also spoke of his own political and governance model as predicated on policy and policy stability. "You have seen my performance of the past decade. That's why people have maybe given me a third chance. Our governance is driven by policy. And for any investor, policy stability is important...we offer policy stability and policy predictability. This gives investors and others who want to work in India an assurance."
