Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has urged top tech companies in the US to explore India as a destination for manufacturing and innovation.
He met CEOs of tech companies in New York a day after attending the annual meeting of Quad countries, which also includes the US, Australia and Japan. India has been positioning itself as an alternative to China to attract global firms looking at diversifying their supply chains. The country has been particularly focusing on manufacturing semiconductors in the past few years but it still lags far behind major suppliers like China and Taiwan.
