Home to nearly a quarter of the world’s population, India and South Asia are at the heart of global economic, technological and cultural transformation.
India and South Asia
The region is distinguished by rapid industrialization, a booming digital economy and significant agricultural innovation. With a rich legacy including ancient civilizations like the Indus Valley and the Maurya empires, South Asia has significantly influenced modern philosophical, artistic, linguistic and scientific thought. Today, its youth-driven workforce and thriving technology hubs — like Bengaluru’s Silicon Valley — underscore its role in global innovation and entrepreneurship.
