Hello,

Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to France next week will coincide with Bharat Innovates 2026, a deeptech event in Nice, France, that will bring together 120 Indian startups, investors, researchers, and policymakers.

The event, part of the India-France Year of Innovation, aims to connect Indian innovation with global markets, capital, and research partnerships.

More than a startup showcase, Bharat Innovates is designed to help commercialise research and strengthen India-Europe collaboration in areas such as AI, semiconductors, biotech, space, climate tech, and advanced manufacturing.

Meanwhile, IT services giant Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has announced a global partnership with AI company Anthropic to accelerate enterprise adoption of artificial intelligence.
