India, Israel and US cooperating on digital leadership and innovation

India, Israel and the US have earnestly begun trilateral cooperation on digital leadership and innovation, a top American official has said, asserting that it is right that the three countries play a key role in delivering the next generation 5G technology in a way that is “open, interoperable, reliable and secure.” The 5G collaboration is the first step and just the tip of the iceberg, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Deputy Administrator, Bonnie Glick, told PTI after the US-India-Israel forum on strategic, tech and development/water cooperation discussion last week.

We’ll collaborate in science, research and development in coming up with the next generations of technologies. But by partnering by officially, affirming the importance of this relationship, we’ll advance it, she said. The US enjoys a strong relationship with both the countries, based on shared democratic and free-market principles, the official said.
“We are thrilled to work with these partners to solve the world’s development challenges,” Glick said in her keynote address to the virtual US-India-Israel summit focused on trilateral partnerships in the strategic, technology and development arenas.
