“The digitalization is riding other sectors now whether agritech or automobile. Pre-COVID era was when manufacturing was based out of geography which created an economic triangle for the world, in post-COVID era it is changing from such a monopoly regime to a concept of a trusted global supply chain partner. Data security and other security aspects have become a priority. The Government has been pro-active and the PLI scheme came in the toughest times of lockdown. Many policy changes were adopted to bring in ease of doing business. Second change is in innovation; the world is looking at solutions which are robust and taking care of other 6 billion people in the world. India has an advantage as it has 50,000 startups. India through its public digital platform is driving a low cost inclusive digitalisation model that will improve productivity of all key economic centers,” said Dr Ajai Garg, Senior Director, MeitY, talking about movement from Industry 3.0 to Industry 4.0.
