India's manufacturing sector has matured significantly through initiatives like Make in India, the PLI scheme, and a growing ecosystem of MSMEs. However, as we look toward the target of Viksit Bharat 2047, steady and incremental growth is no longer sufficient. To achieve the status of a fully developed economy, we require a profound change in industrial productivity, precision, and global competitiveness.

In light of the same, a closed-door roundtable is organised by CRF on AI and Industry titled "I.N.D.I.A. - Intelligent Networks Driving Industrial Advancement".

Believing that deploying Artificial Intelligence at scale across India's industrial sector is the force capable of compressing developmental timelines that once took decades into years, this roundtable is convened to move beyond aspiration and directly engage with the concrete frameworks required to embed AI systematically into our national industrial base.
