 During his convocation address, Zainulbhai said, “A decade ago, we used to look for technology from the US or countries outside of India. However, in recent years, India has outpaced all other countries in terms of digital infrastructure, such as Aadhar and UPI,” he said.

Since the digital ecosystem is available everywhere, approximately 800 million people have registered on the Co-Win platform. After 25 years of broadband and wireless, 85 percent of the US population has access to fast broadband. However, in five years, India’s 5G penetration could reach 99 percent and will be quicker than US and Europe, and other countries, he said.

India currently has the world’s third-largest unicorn population. In 2022, there are 108 unicorns, but there were only six in 2014. Because of the increased use of smartphones and the internet, as well as the increased number of investors, 60 percent of Unicorns were created after 2020.

Failure is not regarded negatively, but rather as a valuable learning experience. India now has some of the best factories. The Maruti Suzuki facility in Manesar, Haryana, and the EV facility are two examples, he said.
