Scope for bridge between India, international startups in defence and aerospace sector: Union minister Piyush Goyal

Union Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal on Saturday said there is scope to establish a connection or “bridge” between Indian and international start-ups within the defence and aerospace sectors.

He further expressed confidence that India is poised to become a preferred supplier for the defence and aerospace sector in the near future.

“…there is scope for a bridge or a connection between startups in India and internationally in the space of defence and aerospace. I will ask Startup India to see, and we will use the services of the companies and their connection, if we can connect the two,” Goyal said in response to a question.
