Virtually inaugurating and addressing the meet, Secretary, Department of Defence R&D, and DRDO Chairman Samir V Kamat said by "uniting innovation and industry", the DRDO is empowering Indian defence manufacturing for a self-reliant tomorrow.
"From research laboratories to real-world capabilities, the DRDO is partnering with the industry to come up with indigenised solutions for the armed forces and realise the government's vision of 'Make in India, Make for the World'," he said.
Kamat said with the aim to enhance the understanding of the DRDO's policies and procedures among industries, it has instituted the "Industry Interaction Group" at all its laboratories, centres, establishments as well as the headquarters.
