Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday invited global businesses to participate in the growth story of India, which is the fastest growing large economy of the world.
Addressing Global Fintech Fest 2025 in Mumbai, Modi emphasised that technology is not just a matter of convenience, but a means of equality.
"This inclusive approach has transformed our banking system.
"Earlier, it was a privilege, but digital technology has turned it into a tool of empowerment. Today, digital payment is a part of everyday life.
"The credit for this goes to the JAM Trinity (Jan Dhan, Aadhaar and Mobile)," he said.
India's fintech prowess is getting global recognition, he said, adding, India is not only sharing technology with other countries but also helping them develop it.
"I invite all (countries) including the UK to forge partnership with India. All global investors are welcome to participate in India's growth story.
"We have to create such a fintech world where technology, people and planet can all prosper.
"The goal of innovation should not be just growth but also goodness, and finance not just means numbers but human progress," he said.
Highlighting that India is the mother of democracy, Modi said, "when we talk about democracy, it is not limited to elections and policy-making. India has made the democratic spirit a strong pillar of governance.
"Its best example is technology."
Speaking at the occasion, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said the India-UK FTA will boost GDP of both countries.
