Every National Technology Day reminds us not just to celebrate innovation, but also to shape the future of technology. At IndiaIT360, we continually strive to spotlight the leaders who define the present and pave the way for tomorrow.
This year, we reached out to some of India’s most dynamic founders, CEOs, and product leaders to hear their thoughts on youth, technology, and the nation’s innovation potential.
Dhairya Tandon - Sr. Marketing Manager at Recorded Future On this National Technology Day, let's remember the brilliant minds shaping our digital future. Cheers to the tech wizards making the impossible possible each day!

With over 50% of India’s population under 30, our youth aren’t just digital natives—they’re innovation catalysts. With India recently climbing to 39th position on the Global Innovation Index and committing ?1 lakh crore to deep tech and R&D, the message is clear: we must equip our next generation with the skills needed in AI, automation, and scientific thinking.
With 1.5 million+ engineers graduating annually, 65% of our population under 35, and the highest AI skill penetration globally, India is building the most powerful innovation engine of the 21st century. We’re already the world’s 3rd largest startup ecosystem, with 130,000+ startups and 110+ unicorns!
The macroeconomic momentum is in full force: government investments in infrastructure and deep tech are driving innovation at scale, while microeconomic shifts—such as India’s expanding middle class and entrepreneurial spirit—are fueling grassroots disruption.
Who knows, the world’s next trillion-dollar idea may be born on Indian soil—from a 22-year-old who was never told to play it safe.
