If we think of moving ahead with old technologies and old systems, then we will always be two centuries behind those countries. That's why today it is necessary that we think in new ways and move forward according to those ways," he said.Addressing the event he also announced the launch of the Defence India Start-up Challenge, i.e. DISC-9."Defence Ministry has also approved a simplified and fast-track procedure for procurement from iDEX start-ups and MSMEs. iDEX has opened avenues for achieving self-reliance in defence," he said.He said that iDEX has been awarded the PM Award under the Innovation category. If the business of iDEX Winners expands, lakhs of people will get employment in the country."Start-up Manthan is a grand celebration of the journey of growth of the Indian Defense start-up ecosystem. This is an indicator of the success of our initiative "Innovations for Defense Excellence" i.e. iDEX. iDEX has so far helped many home-grown technologies to develop and move forward," he said."In order to encourage our new entrepreneurs the development of larger projects, we have decided to increase the grants given so far. This shows the government's support for the hard work, dedication, and encouragement of our innovators and start-ups," he added.He said that Start-up means new energy, Start-up means New Commitment, and Start-up means New Enthusiasm."If we have to go ahead of other countries, it is necessary for new people and start-ups to come forward. In my view, Start-up means new energy, Start-up means New Commitment, and Start-up means New Enthusiasm," Singh said.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
