At the Bharat Health Global Expo 2026, Union Minister of Commerce & Industry Shri Piyush Goyal emphasized the need for India to build resilient, globally integrated healthcare supply chains and move beyond its success in generics toward research, development, and innovation in new molecules, biosimilars, and biotechnology. He highlighted the government's readiness to support medical value travel, pharma and healthcare infrastructure, and sector-specific plug-and-play industrial facilities, including bulk drug parks in Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat, and Himachal Pradesh. The Minister underscored that India must adopt an outward-looking global approach, including investments in overseas markets for local value addition, while aligning regulatory mechanisms with developed economies to support innovation and achieve the goal of becoming a developed nation by 2047.
