As per IANS, the exhibitions will span critical sectors such as defence, aerospace, healthcare, clean energy, agritech, deep tech, and social impact innovations, underlining India's entrepreneurial drive towards 'Atmanirbhar Bharat'.
The opening session of the two-day-long conclave will feature the release of a Startup Conclave Coffee Table Book, the NEP-2020 Dashboard, and the Indian Knowledge System Compendium.
