India’s Smart Manufacturing Vision


Sector: Manufacturing/Advanced Manufacturing

Market Region: Asia and Australasia

Date: January 15, 2026 (08:30-09:30, EST)

India is undergoing a dynamic transformation in its manufacturing sector, propelled by national initiatives such as Make in India, Digital India, and targeted production-linked incentive schemes. These efforts aim to position the country as a future global manufacturing powerhouse and creating significant opportunities for international collaboration.

The Government of Ontario will present an insightful overview of India’s smart manufacturing landscape and highlight how Ontario-based companies may contribute to, and benefit from, this evolution. Technologies in high demand among Indian manufacturers and system integrators include: industrial IoT, AI-powered automation, robotics and collaborative robots, smart sensors and edge computing, digital twins and simulation software, cybersecurity for industrial systems, and cloud-based MES and ERP platforms.

India’s strategic push toward smart manufacturing aims to boost production efficiency and quality, reduce costs and lead times, enhance customer experience, and strengthen supply chain resilience.

This webinar will equip Ontario exporters with insights on:

  • Priority sectors in India embracing smart factory technologies

  • Growth projections and regional investment hotspots

  • Market-entry strategies for Ontario technology, automation, and robotics firms

  • Partnership opportunities with Indian OEMs and system integrators

  • High-impact avenues to showcase Ontario innovation, including participation in the Automation Expo South Trade Mission in March 2026

 

I will send you a link to the webinar prior to the event date.
