New York [US], September 23 (ANI): Biogen CEO Chris Viehbacher has praised PM Modi’s vision of making India central to the technological progress of the 21st century.
“I think the PM has a vision that the 21st century is driven by technology and clearly wants to have India front and centre in the progress of technology. He pointed out the very talented population in India. It is a young population,” said Viehbacher after participating in a roundtable for tech CEOs by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New York.
The CEO of the American multinational biotechnology company highlighted the importance of India’s talented and youthful population, which is rapidly becoming a cornerstone of the country’s growing tech-driven economy.
“We know here in America, how well-educated Indians are. One of the things I liked that he said was we want to have technology being inclusive. So, this is for the broader population and as someone in biotechnology, technology can play an important role in better healthcare for Indians,” Viehbacher said.
