General Atomics initiates 3 projects in AI, drones, semiconductors

With Bharat Forge, General Atomics Aeronautical Systems (GA-ASI) has entered into a partnership in the critical field of aerostructure manufacturing and with 114ai, an Indian AI company, to develop the next generation of technologies in artificial intelligence, according to Vivek Lall, chief executive, of the General Atomics Global Corporation.

It has entered into a partnership with 3rdiTech, an Indian start-up, in the field of semiconductors, Lall said.

He further added that GA-ASI is looking forward to working with Bharat Forge in the critical field of aerostructure manufacturing. Bharat Forge's expertise in the field of forging is known globally, and their outstanding contributions in the aerospace sector have inspired us to work together for building the next generation of the world's most advanced unmanned aerial vehicles.

Semiconductors are going to be the defining technology of this era. The team and capability being developed at 3rdiTech are representative of the new India under Prime Minister Modi's leadership. GA-ASI will work with 3rdiTech, one of the inaugural winners of the Indian Ministry of Defence's flagship iDEX Programme, to transition this cutting-edge capability onto some of India's platforms," he said.

"General Atomics is committed to supporting Prime Minister Modi's vision of an Atmanirbhar India, and partnerships like these are a big step in the right direction, Lall said.

A task force set up by the US Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) in partnership with the India Electronics Semiconductor Association (IESA) with participation from the Government of India Semiconductor Mission will make recommendations on opportunities and challenges to overcome in order to further strengthen India's role within the global semiconductor value chain, and will also provide input to the US-India Commercial Dialogue.
