India aims to acquire 10% of the intellectual property rights (IPR) in 6G technology by 2029 or 2030. Achieving this ambitious goal is well within India’s reach.
India has a strong track record in the telecom sector and ranks among the top three ecosystems for 5G globally. The country has also invested significantly in research and development, boasting a large pool of skilled engineers and scientists.
The launch of the Bharat 6G Alliance marks a significant milestone in India’s pursuit of 6G IPR. This alliance brings together government, industry, and academia to collaborate on 6G technology development, ensuring India’s leading position in innovation.
India faces several challenges on the path to achieving its 6G IPR goal. One such challenge is the high cost associated with research and development. Additionally, attracting and retaining top talent in the telecom sector is another obstacle.
Nevertheless, India possesses the potential to overcome these challenges. The government remains committed to supporting the telecom sector, while Indian businesses display a growing interest in 6G technology. With the right investment and collaboration, India is poised to successfully achieve its 6G IPR goal.
