Event Summary

Rolls-Royce Holdings CEO Tufan Erginbilgiç met with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to discuss the company's significant expansion plans in India. Rolls-Royce Holdings aims to scale up its activities, including expanding its Global Capability Centers to be the largest globally, co-creating complex manufacturing, and building high-value engineering capabilities. This initiative aligns with India's 'Viksit Bharat' and 'Atmanirbhar Bharat' (self-reliant India) goals, particularly in defense and critical sectors. The British High Commission in India noted this as a reflection of growing cooperation in advanced engineering and innovation between the United Kingdom and India. Rolls-Royce Holdings views India as a crucial market and intends to develop it into a 'home market' beyond the United Kingdom, fostering partnerships with Indian aerospace and defense entities and investing in talent development.
