3D printing, across all sectors, has the potential to revolutionise supply chains. This is especially true for a country like India that went from being an agrarian economy to jumping head first into the services sector — skipping over the development of manufacturing entirely.

“At NASSCOM, we believe it is a tremendous opportunity for India to become the world's largest playground to implement technology like AI in areas like farming that are important to us,” said Ghosh.
