To address these challenges and introduce potentially game-changing technologies to the world, the International Finance Corporation (IFC), a member of the World Bank Group recently launched TechEmerge in India.
The program is being implemented in partnership with the Finnish Ministry of Employment and Economy as well as the Israeli Ministry of Economy and Industry.
