In a boost to the \u2018Make in India\u2019 initiative, General Atomics Aeronautical Systems has announced a strategic partnership with an Indian start-up company that develops next generation computer chips, integrated circuits and other semiconductor technologies. \u201cGeneral Atomics Aeronautical Systems (GA-ASI) is delighted to announce a strategic partnership with 3rdiTech,\u201d said Dr Vivek Lall, chief executive of General Atomics Global Corporation.<\/p>\n
\u201cSemiconductors are going to be the defining technology of this era. The team and capability being developed at 3rdiTech are representative of the new India under Prime Minister (Narendra) Modi\u2019s leadership,\u201d he said on Tuesday. Lall said GA-ASI will work with 3rdiTech, one of the inaugural winners of the Indian Ministry of Defence\u2019s flagship iDEX Programme, to transition this cutting-edge capability onto some of India\u2019s platforms.<\/p>\n
\u201cGeneral Atomics is committed to supporting Prime Minister Modi\u2019s vision of an Atmanirbhar India, and partnerships like these are a big step in the right direction,\u201d Lall said. In the spirit of increasing technology cooperation between India and the US, the companies will now work to co-develop state-of-the-art products for the Indian and global market, said the media release.<\/p>\n
GA-ASI has been working closely with the team at 3rdiTech since 2021. This announcement comes as the two companies are beginning to co-design and co-develop products. This represents a large shift from today\u2019s landscape that is dominated by Technology Transfer from the US to Indian companies, the media release said, adding that GA-ASI\u2019s collaboration with 3rdiTech paves the way for products designed and developed in India to make it to the global supply chain.<\/p>\n
In April, the US Trade Representative said in a report that initiatives such as \u201cMake in India\u201d and \u201cAtmanirbhar Bharat\u201d seek to increase India\u2019s self-sufficiency by promoting domestic industry and reducing reliance on imported goods, observing that American exporters encounter \u201csignificant\u201d tariff and non-tariff barriers in the country.<\/p>\n
