Creators are India’s digital ambassadors: Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal

Union Minister of Commerce & Industry, Piyush Goyal, while addressing the RISE//DEL Conference 2025 yesterday, emphasized the power of India’s creative ecosystem and the role of digital innovation in shaping the country’s future

RISE//DEL Conference, being held in the Capital, is a three-day multidisciplinary event that aims to connect music, creative industries and startups

In his address, Goyal urged the creative industry to take India’s story to the world and contribute further to its economic growth, while emphasising the need to put trust and authenticity at the center of their work and take responsibility and accountability for the output generated.

He, according to a government statement, identified four aspects for the creative industry to contribute to India’s RISE in the Amrit Kaal: responsible content, innovative storytelling, skill development and exporting Indian creativity.

“The dreams that you create and nurture will ultimately meet reality. When all of you come together on one platform, it will help create significant stories for the future,” he stated.

He added that creators are India’s digital ambassadors, taking the India story to the world and highlighting their role in shaping global perceptions and expanding India’s cultural footprint.

He stated that access to low-cost data has been one of the key pillars of this government’s Digital India policy, making India the largest consumer of data globally.

“Our data costs are a fraction of what they would be in Europe, the US, or any other developed country. When we combine low-cost data with the high-quality talent that India possesses, we have a revolution awaiting us in the field of creativity and technology,” he said.

He underscored the vast opportunities in India’s creative sector, which is rapidly evolving beyond traditional fields like film, drama, and theater to encompass gaming, AI-driven content creation and digital media.

He stated that this industry, which has already become a multi-billion-dollar sector, employed a large number of people across the country. “The creative industry of the past — film making, drama, and theatre — is now merging with futuristic technologies like gaming and AI to create new forms of entertainment,” he noted.

Goyal encouraged participants at RISE//DEL to leverage such engagements to develop a roadmap for future growth and development.
