ABOUT THE SUMMIT

In today's interconnected economy, a nation's competitive edge is increasingly defined by its capacity for innovation and its integration into international R&D networks. To spearhead progress in this new paradigm, establishing robust industry-academia partnerships is not just an advantage—it is a strategic imperative. Countries that successfully foster these synergies are at the forefront of the global innovation landscape.

Academic and research institutions are the bedrock of foundational knowledge and skill development, while industry provides the critical market insights and pathways to commercialization. The synergy of these two forces, when amplified on a national scale, acts as a powerful catalyst for breakthrough innovations and economic resilience.

The FICCI Bharat R&D Summit 2025 is meticulously designed to catalyze this global synergy. Under the theme "Innovating Together: Industry-Academia Collaboration" this two-day conference and exhibition will convene the brightest minds to chart a new course for India's innovation journey.
