India as a Creative Powerhouse
India is turning global economic challenges into opportunities by using its young population and tech skills.
The Media & Entertainment (M&E) sector promotes the idea of ‘Create in India, Create for the World’.
India’s long tradition of storytelling, from classical arts to modern digital content, supports this vision.
Global Impact and WAVES 2025
India is gaining global recognition in media, seen in successes like DNEG’s Oscar-winning VFX work in Dune 2.
World Audio-Visual Entertainment Summit (WAVES) 2025 in Mumbai will connect young creators with global investors and mentors.
WAVEX (WAVES Xcelerator) will help startups grow in areas like animation, AI, gaming, and the metaverse.
The event promotes diversity with support for women-led and innovative startups.
Support for Creative Startups
WAVES will offer funding, mentorship, and international exposure for Indian startups.
Over 4,500 sellers and 5,900 buyers are part of the WAVES Bazaar, creating global opportunities.

The government is supporting creativity as a key economic and cultural force.
Schools, labs, and studios are all seen as places where creativity thrives.
WAVES 2025 is not just an event — it’s a launchpad for the next generation of global creators.
