China and India have considerable scope for cooperation in the field of artificial intelligence (AI), as their AI capabilities are complementary in many respects, a senior Indian investor told the Global Times in an exclusive interview.
There is considerable scope for AI cooperation in areas that address common global challenges, including healthcare, education, agriculture, climate resilience, industrial productivity and scientific research, always within the policy frameworks established by the respective governments and international perspectives on responsible and secure AI, Mahendra Swarup, founder of VG Capital and former president of the Indian Venture and Alternate Capital Association, told the Global Times on Wednesday.
AI is likely to become one of the defining technologies of this century. India's strengths lie in software development, engineering talent, digital public infrastructure and entrepreneurial innovation. China has developed significant capabilities in AI applications, hardware, manufacturing and large-scale deployment. "These capabilities are complementary in many respects," Swarup said.
The veteran on the front line of India's venture capital investment sector made the remarks amid improving bilateral ties and a certain level of liberalization of Chinese investments in India.
Chinese investors have historically contributed to the growth of several successful Indian companies, especially start-ups. While investment activity has been moderated by regulatory developments over the past few years, there has always been underlying interest in the Indian market because of its long-term fundamentals, Swarup said.
"If the recent improvement in bilateral relations leads to greater regulatory clarity and business confidence, the Chinese investors will once again evaluate opportunities in India, although the general sentiment is one of cautious optimism," said Swarup.
Amid positive momentum in bilateral relations, Swarup noted rising opportunities for entrepreneurs from the two countries to engage in practical cooperation.
There are several areas where entrepreneurs from India and China could potentially complement each other's strengths, subject to the regulatory frameworks of different sectors in both countries, the investor said, highlighting areas including healthcare technologies, clean energy, electric mobility, advanced manufacturing, climate technologies, industrial automation, logistics and supply-chain innovation.

"In whichever sector the complementary strengths of both China and India can be brought together responsibly, they can create value not only for both countries but also for global markets," said Swarup.
India has recently shown signs of easing some long-standing restrictions on trade and investment with China, with Chinese experts saying that the move reflects the country's growing recognition of China's importance to its economic development, and a desire to create a more favorable environment for improving bilateral ties.
There has been a gradual policy adjustment, including easing restrictions on foreign direct investment (FDI) in e-commerce, allowing FDI from companies with Chinese ownership, The Hindu reported on August 1.
With India set to host a BRICS summit this year, Swarup also said that Indian and Chinese companies can work together to promote the interests of developing countries.
India and China are both major economies with significant experience in addressing the challenges of development at scale. Although each country has followed its own development path, there are areas where companies from both nations can contribute meaningfully to broader development across Asia, Africa and other emerging markets, Swarup noted.
There is considerable potential for collaboration in affordable healthcare, digital financial inclusion, renewable energy, agricultural technologies, education technology, infrastructure, supply-chain development and support for small and medium-sized enterprises. These are areas where scalable and affordable solutions can have a significant impact on improving livelihoods, the veteran said.
Partnerships that combine technology, entrepreneurship and long-term investment can help create solutions that are both commercially sustainable and socially impactful. "As two of the largest economies in the Global South, India and China have the opportunity to contribute positively to sustainable development through innovation, responsible investment and constructive commercial engagement," Swarup said.
。    《日报》全媒体记者 赵丽杰          　　新城区一号小区海星路20—2号楼4单元一楼楼头，是“小菊理发店”。理发店东侧，前后有40多米长、三四米宽的花园，里面还有形态各异的“文化石”和两张方桌。近几年，闲暇之余，周边居民聚集于此，他们或赏花喝茶、或打扑克下象棋、或分享趣闻轶事，呈现出一幅和谐美好的生活画卷。         　　该户的主人是50多岁的刘洪涛，一直热心公益事业。

B | 10多年前，他们一家搬到这里，开了理发店。五六年前，楼外的环境不太好，杂草丛生，刘洪涛看不下去了，买来锹镐等工具，把杂草和石头清理干净，然后又买来爬藤月季、鸡冠花和牡丹等花苗栽上，还搭了20多米长的花架子。

C | 接下来，松土、浇水、上肥、清理杂草，刘洪涛天天在小花园里忙活儿，邻居也参与其中。

D | 如今，小花园里鲜花盛开，美不胜收，附近居民和过路人纷纷驻足拍照。?刘洪涛觉得还缺点儿什么，便发动左邻右舍和亲朋好友，弄来了10多块观赏石，找人刻上了“兴盛之家”“中国梦”“和为贵”“德”等字样，还在房山墙上画了一幅“长城”，为小花园增添了一股文化气息。附近居民时常会聚于此，刘洪涛还准备了方桌、椅子、太阳能灯具，便于大家休闲娱乐。

E | 龙湾街道新兴社区对此给予大力支持，每年都提供遮阳篷。         　　10月12日晚，记者来到小花园，看到鸡冠花和月季花开得正艳，七八个居民正玩着扑克，当时刘洪涛外出帮邻居安装电动车车棚。邻居马新久告诉记者：“我们都称这是小区的四合院，大家习惯聚集在这里娱乐，打打牌，下下棋，有时还召开‘会议’，商议小区治理的事儿。有了这个四合院，邻里关系更融洽了。”          　　刘洪涛帮完忙赶回来，他说大家有事儿没事儿都愿意来小院坐坐，谁家有个急难愁事儿，来这儿说说，大家或安慰或支招或伸手相帮，问题就解决了。“这个小花园费了我不少心思，但看到大家来小院很开心，我更开心！”刘洪涛说。
