Description

The U.S. Embassy in New Delhi announces an open competition for organizations to implement the U.S. India Sports Technology Partnership Program. This initiative supports “Mission 500,” the mandate to double bilateral trade between the United States and India to $500 billion by 2030 and is designed to establish a disciplined commercial pipeline for American innovation.

Through national dialogues, applied demonstrations, and targeted engagement activities held across multiple cities across India (including but not limited to New Delhi, Kolkata, Chennai, Bengaluru, Guwahati, Aizwal, Mumbai and Hyderabad) the program will connect Indian sports authorities, professional leagues, sports medicine institutions, and sports innovation stakeholders with U.S. experts, companies, and research institutions.

The program supports U.S. foreign policy priorities to promote American innovation, expand international commercial opportunities for U.S. firms, and reinforce U.S. leadership in emerging technology sectors. Activities should leverage global sports milestones including the 2026 FIFA World Cup and the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic and Paralympic Games as platforms to highlight American excellence in sports performance technology, data analytics, and sports medicine.
