Mr. Sandip Weling, Whole-time Director and Chief Business Officer – Global Retail, Aptech Limited
“The Government’s focus on India’s AVGC- XR sectors and Creator’s economy reflects a clear recognition of talent, training & upskilling as strategic growth drivers in India’s journey towards Viksit Bharat. Policy initiatives aimed at strengthening skilling, infrastructure, and ecosystem development should create meaningful pathways for youth to participate in high-value creative and technology-led careers. Over the last 4 decades, our training brands at Aptech are deeply engaged in creative education . During this time, we have witnessed growing interest to pursue creative careers and industry alignment across animation, VFX, gaming, digital content creation, beauty & wellness and other creative sectors that are fast becoming pillars of a Viksit Bharat. These industries combine creativity with advanced technology, enabling scalable employment, entrepreneurship, and global competitiveness. We believe that long-term impact is driven by industry-aligned curriculum, continuous evolution with technology, public-private-community collaborations, and a strong focus on employability. To sustain and drive this momentum, continued policy support for vocational and industry-aligned education, sustained industry-academia collaborative platforms, and targeted incentives for homegrown talent and startups will be crucial. Such targeted measures can accelerate job creation and innovation, reinforcing India’s position as a global hub for creative excellence., aligned with the Honourable Prime Minister’s vision of inclusive growth and long-term national progress.”
