An artificial intelligence-enabled cervical cancer screening system is among 37 Indian deep-tech innovations being showcased at the Bharat Innovates Exposition in New Delhi during the BRICS Summit.
The two-day exposition at Bharat Mandapam is bringing together technologies developed by Indian startups and research institutions across healthcare, space, energy, agriculture and other areas.
The AI-based cervical cancer screening platform is designed to assist in identifying women who may require further medical assessment. The system can provide a risk assessment within a short period, potentially helping healthcare workers identify cases that need closer attention.
Other healthcare technologies on display include an AI-based system designed to monitor mothers and foetuses for clinical risks and a radiation-free thermal imaging technology aimed at supporting early breast cancer screening.
The inclusion of these technologies highlights the growing role of artificial intelligence and advanced digital tools in healthcare. Developers are increasingly working on systems that can support early detection and help medical professionals process information more efficiently.
Early screening is particularly important for diseases such as cervical and breast cancer, where timely identification can improve the chances of successful treatment.
The exposition provides Indian technology companies and research-driven startups with an opportunity to present their work to international leaders, investors, businesses and academic institutions attending the BRICS gathering.
The healthcare innovations also reflect a broader effort to connect scientific research with practical applications that can address public-health needs.
By bringing such technologies together under the BRICS platform, India is highlighting the potential for collaboration between startups, researchers and international partners.
The event is expected to encourage further partnerships in research, technology development and commercialisation, while giving Indian innovators greater exposure to potential global markets.
The showcase underlines the expanding contribution of India’s deep-tech sector to healthcare innovation and the country’s efforts to develop technology-driven solutions for early diagnosis and monitoring.
