Deep Tech's transformative power is undeniable. From tackling climate change to revolutionizing healthcare, these cutting-edge innovations hold immense promise for a sustainable future. India, with its robust scientific talent pool and burgeoning startup ecosystem, is well-positioned to become a global leader in deep tech.

However, significant challenges remain on the path to deep tech dominance. Access to crucial infrastructure - from advanced test labs to high-performance computing - hinders development and testing capabilities. Additionally, navigating a complex regulatory landscape, particularly in sectors like biotechnology, can stifle innovation and market entry. Furthermore, a skilled workforce specializing in deep tech areas like AI and robotics is crucial, and India faces a gap in this critical talent pool.

Addressing these challenges is paramount.
