“There is a need for collaborative efforts for a 'Whole of Nation' approach between the government, services, R&D and defence production ecosystem towards fostering innovation in India's journey of achieving self-reliance in defence manufacturing and production in sync with India's 'Vision 2047',” CDS Chauhan said while addressing two-day 'Brainstorming Session' titled 'Impetus to Indigenisation' which was organised under the aegis of the Department of Military Affairs by HQ Integrated Defence Staff in collaboration with the Society of Indian Defence Manufacturers in Delhi.

The key highlights of the first day sessions were private sector participation in Defence R&D, enhancing effectiveness of Make, iDEX, Positive Indigenisation List (PIL) and Technology Development Fund (TDF) schemes, ways to incentivising private sector participation in defence manufacturing, providing level playing field to private sector, development & management of Defence Industry Corridors, capacity mapping of all defence manufactures across the country, incentivising MSMEs, PPP/GOCO models and IPRs.
