At the prestigious Manorama Techspectations conference in Kochi, Anuraj Ennai, CEO & Co-founder of InfinyAI Labs, delivered a masterclass on what it truly takes to build scalable technology innovation in India. Speaking on the panel “India’s Next Wave: Scalable Tech Innovation,” Anuraj outlined a compelling framework for how Indian deep-tech startups can move beyond copying Western playbooks to create solutions uniquely optimized for the country’s constraints and opportunities .

At the India AI Impact Summit 2026 in New Delhi, while discussions swirled around foreign robotics solutions on display, one machine captured the imagination of attendees and proved that India’s deep-tech ecosystem has arrived: PARAM, a state-of-the-art quadruped robot developed entirely by a Bengaluru-based deep-tech team . PARAM wasn’t just another exhibit. With live demonstrations of dynamic locomotion, onboard AI perception, and modular versatility, it stood as a powerful symbol of rising domestic capability in advanced robotics and hardware innovation—a counterpoint to debates over foreign tech dominance and a tangible validation of the Atmanirbhar Bharat vision in one of the most complex engineering domains .
