• Technology, security, and climate and the environment are areas that both parties have prioritized collaboration on, with roadmaps laying out clear steps to achieve mutually beneficial goals.
• India has also partnered with individual EU member states on different initiatives, including the Czech Republic, indicating potential to continue to develop bilateral cooperation.
