A dazzling display of dance with music and light with a touch of technology fascinated the delegates at Global Entrepreneurship Summit (GES) opening here on Tuesday.
The audience including Prime Minister Narendra Modi and US President Donald Trump's daughter and advisor Ivanka Trump were impressed by the cultural programme combined with the audio-visual presentation.
The half-an-hour long programme highlighted the rich culture and heritage of India and also captured the strides made by India in science and technology and various other fields.
Also at the centre of attraction was 'Mitra', an indigenous robot developed by Bengaluru-based start-up. It walked up to Modi and Ivanka, who were requested to launch the summit logo by the flags of their respective countries on the display one after the other. The robot was programmed to welcome them with their names on pressing the flags.
It was Modi who was first requested to press Indian flag but Ivanka also pressed the US flag simultaneously. The robot could not perform its function properly and the name of only Narendra Modi could be heard.
Earlier, both the Prime Minister and Ivanka walked through the lobbies where the organisers had displayed few selected products and installed big screens highlighting India's achievements in different fields.
