The Labour MP said: "I hope this roundtable discussion started a vital dialogue and informed us how to better come out more robust, more resilient and future-ready in a post-COVID world.

"In a world where democratic principles are threatened, it is of utmost importance that we as policymakers ensure the foundation of future technology is done in a free, fair and democratic manner.

"Empowering the people, providing employment to many and making our businesses future-ready.

"With that hope in mind, I thank all the All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) members for joining the session today.

"Now let us all work towards creating a more environmentally friendly world; by investing not for profit but the future of our children and theirs.

"Working together towards the future of humanity by using the means of technological innovations like artificial intelligence."

Uday Nagaraju, founder of AI Policy Labs said: "AI has permeated into all areas of life, and partnerships are critical for bilateral relations.

"UK India AI partnerships can play a significant role in enhancing bilateral ties and for inclusive development.

"AI Policy Labs will bring together stakeholders in policy, business, academia in furthering these partnerships."
