In a bid to bolster semiconductor manufacturing in India, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has extended invitations to two major American chip makers, Micron Technology and Applied Materials. Earlier, PM Modi had pitched his vision to transform the upcoming years of 2020s into a "tech decade", coining the term "Techade" to encapsulate the idea.
"I am confident that India's dream of techade will be fulfilled by its innovators and their patents," Modi said.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who is currently on a state visit to the US, met a cross section of American CEOs in Washington and sought their technological collaboration in India.
