Can India help the UK create the next Silicon Valley and be a tech superpower?

The U.K. hopes to remake the region between the cities of Oxford and Cambridge into the next Silicon Valley. But Britain needs to attract more skilled talent to its shores if it’s going to become a tech power.
India is the third largest startup ecosystem in the world, and it has plenty of tech talent.
“India has been an engineering global talent hub for the world over recent years,” said Amarjit Singh, the CEO of India Business Group, a consulting firm that supports deals between the two countries.
“Sixty-five percent of the country’s 1.4 billion population is under the age of 35,” Singh added, pointing to the potential economic benefit of a young workforce.
However, immigration remains a highly contested topic in British politics, and it’s unclear how an influx of Indian talent would be received locally.
Watch the video above to learn how India can help the U.K. with its ambition to become a tech superpower.

FTA has not yet been reported officially to have been cancelled. The delegates of UK and India both have released statements opposing the widely published media article. There is a latest interview of a UK Parliamentarian herself affirming the continuation of the FTA discussions.

[@tstcikhthys]

@@Salmanul_ Exactly. India is doing absolutely nothing on this front, yet somehow has pipe dreams about becoming a "superpower" in every field. Here's how they could though: - Allow dual citizenship and convert all OCIs back to citizens, for one. - Then, actually go on a Rwanda-style cleaning spree (instead of doing lip service to Swacch Bharat) to clean up the filth. - Then, restrict cars and motorcycles and designate more road space to pedestrians, bikes, and bus rapid transit. - Get rid of income taxes completely, and unify all GST rates to something like 20% and put it on every single item without exceptions. Then, just give a rebate of the poverty line to everyone legally living in the country so that day-to-day stuff is not inflated. - Spend the increase in money that's likely going to be generated on fixing up the pipes in cities so that clean drinking water comes out of the tap for everyone 24/7. Most of these things wouldn't even cost much money, but they'd radically improve living conditions in India and would make people consider India as a legitimate place they'd want to live. Everything else can go from there.

Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) was the 16th largest bank in the US, and it wasn't subject to the most strict controls. How many banks actually are subject to those controls, besides the big four?

Reposting the message from above 1) EU economic stagnation in the past 15 years. Since 2008 there was 0 economic growth.

Look who made the EU vaccine as an example (it was imperial college London with Astrazeneca Germany), no poland, no netherlands, no denmark. Compare how many universities are in top 100 globally from UK and how many from EU. 3) UK is still the tech and financial hub of European continent.

Firstly Indians STEM graduates don't need to emigrate since ample opportunities opening up back home. India is already fifth largest economy way forward to be $10 trillion economy in next 12-15 years. India is already IT power house & working to become engineering hub with large strides in core engineering & manufacturing in top sectors like aerospace, space tech, heavy machineries, marine & ship building, Robotics & IOT, defense etc. Now considering UK that's an interesting case a Country that is moving backwards. UK welcomed Pakistani Islamic fanatics resulting in spread of fundamental Sunni elements throughout Britain. Interestingly we find an Islamic Nation Saudia Arabia liberalizing it's society against which UK has been adopting Orthodoxy. We find British Govt lacdasical approach as witnesses during Blasphemy case when a specially abled white teenager was targeted for what Islamists considered disrespect to Quran. Further British Govt has encouraged islamic fanatics targeting Indians. We can sense British leadership lacking pride in British identify will submit to Islamic fanatics and will adopt Sharia law to become Next Afghanistan rather than IT superpower. Indian STEM talent has witnessed this radicalization of UK and has been dropping emmigration plans to UK.

Whilst this video focuses mostly on technology, I think the challenge of recreating a Silicon Valley is multifaceted. For one thing, I think the consumer culture in the US is unique. Entrepreneurs there almost take for granted the environment where people are keen on trying out their latest creations. In the US, anything goes it seems, and that I envy. Most tech ecosystems elsewhere are limited to the narrow needs of the consumers such as edtech or fintech (where I'm from for example). Tech and talent is only part of the picture.

[@colbr6733]

True this is commonly overlooked with regard to the US, I have also found parts of Asia have a real aspirational culture and energy which isn't prevalent in the EU and UK, where it is much more conservative. One aspect of UK product development culture by comparison to the US, EU environment that I have seen over the years is an ability to turn problem solving into a very powerful dynamic within the development/tech group itself. I have seen this totally transform the company's ability to cultivate new markets. This isn't to say product development elsewhere is inferior such as here in the Netherlands where I live and work, but it is different.

[@TheB657]

@@colbr6733 I agree. Stay in the Netherlands too and have observed that the consumerism and ingenuity have been very unique that have led to the creation of brands like Philips for medical and consumer electronics, NXP for semiconductors and ASML for chip manufacturing machines using special photo - lithography techniques etc. Each brand has a hegemony on it's own like Danfoss of Denmark.

This why any “New Silicon Valley!” or similar innovation initiatives are doomed to failure as soon as they begin.

Silicon Valley gave birth to the tech industry. It has dominated that industry from the very beginning. The UK has a lot of catching up to do. Building a rail to connect Oxford and Cambridge will help, but it's not much in a greater scope of things. You first have to build the talent pool, and then attract the venture capitalists. Do you think the US is resting on its laurels? To be the next "Silicon Valley", you also have to beat other Tech Hubs in the US: the New York metro area, Los Angeles, DC, Boston, and a host of other cities that have significant tech industries. The New York metro area alone is about two-thirds as big as Silicon Valley when it comes to employment size, and Los Angeles is not far behind.

AI will have a huge disruption on jobs especially in growing economies as most of those industries are first in line for automation. If the UK government can get a lead in the AI space and integrate it into its key industries then it could solve a lot of the productivity issues changing the conditions for cooperation. A lot of the projections on where the next big economies are don’t seem to factor that the jobs that would move or be created in these places will be greatly reduced due to the combination of AI and automation. The likely scenario currently playing out is wealth being concentrated into the hands of those who own/run these industries who can get ahead by spending less on payroll like Tesla did in their production. This is all even before you even consider the self driving and drone disruption. India should tread carefully as they won’t be walking the same route previous economies have walked and the wealth opportunities are favouring more and more of the 1% rather than the diversified opportunities to grow the middle class.
