At the 14th BRICS STI Ministerial in Chennai, Union Minister Jitendra Singh laid out a bold vision: tech that doesn’t just innovate, but includes. From quantum computing to biotech and geospatial tools, India wants BRICS nations to co-build solutions that actually reach people; not just labs. What’s interesting? India isn’t waiting. With missions like the National Quantum Mission and Digital Public Infrastructure, it’s already turning policy into real-world change. And here’s the kicker; this isn’t about competition. It’s about collective resilience. Singh’s message: If BRICS countries pool talent, resources, and priorities, they can shape a future where AI, clean tech, and advanced computing work for farmers, students, and small businesses; not just corporates. For job seekers and researchers, this could mean more cross-border opportunities, funding for startups, and even skill-building programs tied to emerging tech. The future of innovation? It’s being designed in Chennai; and it’s meant to be shared.
