The Ministry of Education of the Government of India is continuously working to give a new identity to the youth of the country, new innovations and startups in the whole world. In this series, a very special ‘road-show’ was organized in Paris, the capital of France, to connect the country’s promising startups and universities with foreign investors. This road-show was mainly a part of the preparation for the international event named ‘Bharat Innovates 2026’. Let us know what is this entire program and how will India benefit from it?
What is Bharat Innovates 2026?
‘Bharat Innovates’ is a global summit, which will be held in the beautiful city of Nice, France from 14 to 16 June 2026. Its aim is to connect India’s ‘deep-tech startups’ (new companies working in depth on science and technology) and universities with big investors, international companies and foreign research institutes from around the world. This is a platform where the youth of the country will present their brilliant ideas and new technology to the world. At the same time, foreign investors will provide money and necessary support to make their business bigger.
What was special in the Paris road show?
This road-show was organized in Paris before the main event to be held in June, so that European investors could be informed about this mega conference. More than 50 representatives from the Ministry of Education of India, the Indian Embassy in Paris and the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) participated in this program. From the French side also, senior officials from famous tech institutions like ‘La French Tech’ and ‘Vivatech’ as well as many renowned educational institutions participated. During the program, Joint Secretary of the Ministry of Education, KM Prafulla Chandra Sharma talked about the strong friendship between India and France. At the same time, Joint Secretary Govind Jaiswal told through a presentation how foreign investors can earn profits by becoming a part of India’s rapidly growing startup environment.
Maximum emphasis will be on these 13 modern technologies
‘Bharat Innovates’ is not limited to just general business, rather it will focus on 13 most special and modern technologies of the future. Some of these major areas are as follows.

The journey from ‘lab to market’
The biggest feature of this initiative is that it will not allow new discoveries in Indian universities to be limited to just laboratories or books. With the help of ‘Bharat Innovates 2026’, those discoveries will be launched in the market as real products. This program will also have the facility of one-to-one meetings between investors and startups, which will make the investment process easier and faster.
How did it start?
Let us tell you that the foundation of this initiative was started by PM Modi on 17 February 2026 in the presence of the President of France, ‘India-France Innovation Year’. ‘Bharat Innovates’ was also announced on the same day.
