As the Paris Motor Show gears up to hold its 120th edition in October, its organisers are turning their eyes to Indian start-ups for strong presence at its technology pavilion.
The organisers are seeking to establish a platform to connect Indian technology start-ups with French and European automobile manufacturers besides hoping for more visitors from here.
"India is a big player in the information technology segment. It has many many start-ups and is known for electronics and IT strength. I am hoping that the Indian start-ups will have a big presence at the show," Mondial Paris Motor Show Commissaire General Jean-Claude Girot told PTI here.
He said India has an added attraction due to the skills of its engineers and low cost.
With technology disruption at the heart of The Paris Motor Show, there will be a special business-to-business pavilion in this year's edition to be held from October 4-14,
When asked if any Indian automobile manufacturers would participate, he said,"We have not contacted Indian manufacturers. I hope they will come, perhaps not this year but by 2020."
