It will enable such advancements in the areas of defense, AI, semiconductors, quantum computing, biotechnology, energy, and space while ensuring technology security.

By the end of the year, a U.S.-India Roadmap will have been developed for accelerating AI Infrastructure which would recognize the capital, policy, infrastructure, and regulatory requirements for supporting U.S.-origin AI infrastructure in India.

INDUS Innovation was also launched, modeled after INDUS-X for industry-academic partnership, encouraging investments and partnerships in space, energy, and other strategically important technologies.

The leaders also highlighted a budget for mapping Earth's surface changes with the NISAR mission. Human spaceflight, satellite technology, and space manufacturing were also highlighted for future collaboration.
