Despite this rich history, India\u2019s technological leadership had diminished as global trends shifted towards the West.<\/p>\n<p>However, initiatives like the World Audio Visual And Entertainment Summit (WAVES) and the Create in India Challenge (CIC) are the next big leap, as the Honourable PM has consistently advocated for indigenous technological growth, as seen with the launch of initiatives like \u201cMake in India\u201d in 2014, and \u201cDigital India\u201d in 2015. These programs transformed the country\u2019s digital landscape, setting the stage for subsequent initiatives such as \u201cStartup India\u201d and \u201cAtmanirbhar Bharat,\u201d which have further fuelled the expansion of India\u2019s tech ecosystem. Today, India leads in various technological fields, including augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), artificial intelligence (AI), and the audio-visual industry.<\/p>\n<p>WAVES is not just an event, but a movement that fosters innovation and strengthens India\u2019s tech ecosystem. <a href=\"https:\/\/wavelaps.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Wavelaps<\/a>, a key partner in this initiative, is honoured to lead the charge in shaping the future of AR\/VR in India through its thought leadership role in the<a href=\"https:\/\/wavelaps.com\/xrcreatorhackathon\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"> XR Creator Hackathon<\/a>. Both as mentor and strategic partner, Wavelaps is helping to nurture the next generation of talent and innovation.

The AR\/VR sector is particularly promising, with a current valuation of $1.83 billion and an expected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 38.1% over the following five years. Experts predict that immersive technologies will create over 10 million jobs in India by 2030, and the XR Creator Hackathon will be crucial in catalyzing this growth by enabling young talent to create commercially viable solutions in fields like healthcare, education, media &amp; entertainment, and e-commerce.<\/p>\n<p><em>If you have any objection to this press release content, kindly contact pr.error.rectification@gmail.com to notify us.
