The connection with the Indian market will allow Israel to expand its business opportunities and serve as an important catalyst for economic growth across various sectors. This delegation also highlighted Israel's intentions to turn regional challenges into international opportunities, by strengthening economic and business ties with countries like India, which plays a significant role in the global arena. India – A Key Player in the Economic Landscape India is a key player in the strategic and economic landscape of Asia. Its collaborations with many countries in Asia open numerous opportunities for Israel to expand its influence and enter new markets. Cooperation in various fields such as renewable energy, advancedmanufacturing, water technologies, and ag-tech can help Israeli companies penetrate the developing markets of Southeast Asia, positioning Israel as a major player in Asia with a valuable contribution in smart technologies. By strengthening its relations with India, Israel will be able to participate in regional projects in future and become a technological partner in various fields, enhancing its regional and global influence. India is a natural and welcoming partner. In India, there are some political circles and organizations expressing anti-Israel views, but the BDSmovement itself is not active as it is in Europe or the U.S. These movements are marginal and have not managed to significantly influence the Indian government's policies. With its large population, economic interests, and historical relations with Israel, India is not inclined to avoid connections with countries or companies due to boycott campaigns, especially when it comes to strategic relations with Israel.
