At a special global startup alliance meeting held by the department on Tuesday, IT Minister Priyank Kharge stated that the state's next question is how to become part of global networks creating next-generation technology companies and jobs, rather than just attracting investments. He noted that the Bengaluru Tech Summit is being organized in the city from November 17 to 19, to take the state beyond the scope of typical international cooperation forums. During the event, he mentioned that over 40 formal partner countries are now associated with the government, connecting to over 1,100 startups and facilitating over 60 agreements.
