Dr. Ajay Kumar, the chief guest of the session, delivered his key-note address optimistically by stating several interesting facts to encourage the audience about the potential of India as a country and the power of the youth to transform the entire nation. With the second-highest number of internet connections in the world along with a steep increase in the demand for use of internet, he stressed on the importance of the youth to explore the unknown avenues of IP creation, and the growing power of India in the field of IT and internet. Incubation Centres set up in different parts of the country are constantly striving to innovate products to decrease the dependence of India on importing from different countries. The initiative taken by the Government of India to convert the nation into the highest solar power generator of the world by increasing the generation from 20 GigaWatt to 100 GigaWatt by 2022 is ambitious and an upcoming platform for the youth to step into the ‘Make In India’ effort.
