The event was attended by prominent figures and senior defence officials from both Italy and India, along with institutional representatives and leading executives from companies operating in both countries. The meeting aimed to foster new synergies and facilitate a constructive dialogue focused on joint technological and industrial development, within the framework of an increasingly strategic bilateral cooperation.

Federico Pensa, Chief Commercial Officer at EdgeLab, commented:

“I would like to extend my sincere thanks to Indian Ambassador Mrs Vani Rao for the invitation to this important diplomatic occasion, during which I had the pleasure of meeting the Indian Defence Secretary, Mr Rajesh Kumar Singh, and Mr Phani Koundinya, Vice President of Strategy & Business Development at Bharat Forge.

This meeting not only strengthened the relationship between EdgeLab and the Indian institutional and industrial sectors, but also served as a significant opportunity to consolidate our strategic partnership with Bharat Forge. The Indian market for AUVs (Autonomous Underwater Vehicles) shows double-digit growth potential and represents, for us, an extraordinary opportunity for business and innovation.”
