The event has already assumed the marquee status with top policymakers and global thought leaders partaking as speakers over the years.

At IESA, we are committed to growing the fabless start-up ecosystem and create 10 lakh jobs over the next five years. It's our endeavour to support the creation of IP in India and support manufacturing to make the country the next destination for a vibrant design-led manufacturing hub. While we work closely towards India realizing the vision of a robust FAB ecosystem locally, we are also exploring the huge opportunity for India to start supplying processed raw materials to global fabs and ATMP's and thereby expanding opportunities for equipment spares, services, materials & minerals industry in India."The speaker line-up comprises Indian and international industry leaders & Policy makers who will share their thoughts on promoting India's next phase of ESDM growth.
