Summary
- EyeROV proposes an India-Norway Marine Tech Innovation Corridor.
- Collaboration focus includes underwater robotics and blue economy.
- The startup seeks joint research and market access in deep-tech.
Kochi-based underwater robotics company EyeROV, supported by the Kerala Startup Mission, has been selected to join Prime Minister Narendra Modi's delegation to Norway. This strategic move places EyeROV at the forefront of potential India-Norway collaborations in ocean technologies.
EyeROV participated in significant business and research summits in Oslo, presenting a roadmap for stronger bilateral ties. The company's proposal includes establishing an 'India-Norway Marine Tech Innovation Corridor' to drive joint research and innovation in deep-tech sectors like underwater robotics and the blue economy.
The proposed corridor identifies opportunities in subsea engineering, green shipping, and autonomous underwater systems. EyeROV also presented five specific proposals, focusing on developing advanced ROVs, AUVs, marine sensors, AI-driven green shipping technologies, and solutions for sustainable aquaculture. This initiative aims to leverage Norway's expertise in subsea engineering to advance India's capabilities in marine technology.
EyeROV's participation highlights the growing global recognition of Indian deep-tech startups. The company recently secured a ₹47-crore contract from the Indian Navy for its industrial-grade underwater drones and AI-powered data processing platform.
