The India-United Kingdom collaboration on artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to shape the next major phase of global economic growth, according to a senior UK government minister speaking at the UK- India Parliamentary Lunch in London. Leaders from both countries highlighted AI as a cornerstone of future economic cooperation, emphasising shared values and ambitions in technology and innovation. The minister said the partnership builds on long-standing ties between India and the UK and noted that AI offers opportunities beyond commercial applications such as in health, education, climate technology and public services. India’s rapidly growing tech ecosystem, combined with its demographic dynamism and digital infrastructure, positions it as a crucial partner for the UK in building responsible, human-centric AI solutions. This outlook aligns with broader strategic efforts to deepen bilateral cooperation across high-growth sectors. The recently signed India-UK Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement and the India-UK Vision 2035 framework both set out ambitious goals for joint work in advanced technologies, research, skills partnerships, and digital transformation. Industry bodies and government officials from both nations are now engaging to catalyse cross-border innovation, secure investments in AI research and enable businesses and researchers to scale solutions that address global challenges.
