Chief Minister Siddaramaiah presented Karnataka as a stable and collaborative partner amid shifting global economic and technological alignments, urging foreign governments and industry leaders to invest in the state.
Addressing ambassadors, high commissioners, and delegates from nearly 80 countries at the 'Bridge to Bengaluru–2026' dialogue, Siddaramaiah said nations are seeking trusted and resilient partners, and Karnataka offers exactly such a partnership.
The state has developed a broad-based and technology-driven economy, with Bengaluru at its centre, hosting over 16,000 startups and more than 550 Global Capability Centres.
Karnataka aims to build a $20 billion quantum economy through its Quantum Vision 2035, drive opportunities in computing, sensing, communication, cryptography, and advanced materials, and transform into a $1 trillion economy by 2032, powered by talent, technology, and tenacity.
