Telangana is keen on collaborating with Aichi in trade and industrial sectors, Industries and IT Minister D. Sridhar Babu told a visiting delegation from the Prefecture in Japan.
Highlighting Aichi Prefecture’s leadership across automotive manufacturing, aerospace, robotics and advanced machinery sectors and playing host to carmaker Toyota’s plant, he said Japan’s largest startup incubation centre ‘Station AI’ has also been established there.
