India needs technology that is conceptualized, designed and manufactured within the country

“We have to build Indian technology that has been designed, conceptualised, intellectual property protected, manufactured in the country. In my case, I left an illustrious career in US and came back to India to start a company with a few boys and girls. I knew that visual computing is going to be the future. I can proudly say that we managed to create the first AI, deep learning based visual computing platform in the world that has been patented in the United States. The patent has been granted in US, UK, Canada, Singapore and Israel. These boys and girls sitting in Kolkata created more than 2 dozen intellectual property. Today we are an international Indian multi-national company. We just opened our office in UK, is in the offing in the US and already started in the UAE. Share of the word GDP in 1840 was 16% by India under British occupation while USA contributed merely 2% and rest of the world 82%. After that the golden age of innovation happened and while the world kept up with the pace of innovating new technologies, we Indians lost the race because we were too busy solving our own problems.”
