"India-US tech collaboration is set to grow stronger, as per Rajesh Nambiar's statement."
The US CEO Forum, a strategic platform for Indian tech CEOs and US stakeholders, was launched by Nasscom today, July 9, in New York. This forum aims to strengthen the India-US tech corridor and position Indian technology as a vital contributor to America’s growth story.
The partnership steered by the US CEO Forum will be central to defining how technology serves economies and societies at large. It aligns with the $500 billion bilateral trade goal outlined by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Donald Trump.
The forum will drive high-level strategic dialogue across innovation, enterprise, policy, and talent development. It will focus on areas like AI, semiconductors, clean tech, and future skills. The adoption of AI is entering a more mature and operationally complex phase, and the forum aims to provide guidance and frameworks for responsible AI development.
Nasscom's Developer's Playbook for Responsible AI has been launched as a collaborative effort across India's AI ecosystem. This playbook provides a foundational risk management framework for developers and enterprises seeking to build responsible AI. The focus is shifting towards establishing globally benchmarked, context-sensitive guardrails for agentic AI systems.
The forum aims to deepen partnerships between Indian tech companies and US stakeholders, fostering co-creation and collaboration. It is expected to enhance economic ties, supporting the broader vision of advancing trade and innovation ties between India and the US. Beyond being a one-time event, the Forum will drive ongoing engagements across US tech hubs, building a network of champions for Indian tech in the US.
The forum also aims to elevate the India-US technology corridor as a strategic engine for inclusive growth, innovation, and resilience. It will help accelerate the Indian tech companies' contribution to shared goals around digital transformation, economic development, and workforce readiness in the US. The forum will bring together CEOs, stakeholders from government, industry, investment, academia, and the Indian diaspora.

There is no cutback on technology spending, according to CIO surveys and research.
