SUMMARY

India’s SMEs and exporters are the backbone of its industrial and economic landscape, contributing significantly to employment, innovation, and exports. However, in a rapidly globalizing world, the global competitiveness and sustainability of Indian SMEs and exporters depend increasingly on their ability to access, absorb, and upgrade technology.

The landscape of technology transfer and joint ventures for Indian SMEs and exporters is rich with opportunities, but navigating it requires strategic awareness, diligent research, and proactive engagement. By leveraging free sources, conducting thorough patent searches, engaging with both foreign and indigenous technology providers, and building robust joint ventures, Indian SMEs and exporters can accelerate their technological advancement and competitiveness. Ultimately, the integration of new technologies-supported by capacity building and a clear understanding of legal frameworks-will empower India’s SMEs and exporters to thrive in the global marketplace.

This workshop explores the multifaceted avenues available for Indian SMEs and exporters to acquire and leverage technology, focusing on practical mechanisms such as searching free sources, utilizing patent databases, engaging with foreign technology providers, and forming joint ventures.
