The Dynamic Landscape of Digital Bharat
India, with its 1.4 billion people, stands at the forefront of a digital revolution. In the wake of 2023, it has emerged as the world’s most populous nation, with 720 million internet users and an impressive 50% internet penetration. As we reflect on the accomplishments of the past year, it’s evident that the groundwork for a prosperous future, labelled as Digital Bharat, has been laid.

At OWN Media, our commitment to enabling and empowering New Bharat aligns with the nation’s evolving demographics and economic prowess. With 65% of the population under 35, India is on the path to becoming the youngest nation, often referred to as Alpha X. Embracing diversity with 28 states, 8 union territories, 179 languages, and 544 dialects, India’s progress hinges on inclusivity and equal opportunity.
Economic Milestones and the Road Ahead
In March 2023, India’s GDP soared to 3.7 trillion dollars, marking its position as the fifth-largest global economy. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) prophesies India’s ascent to the third spot by 2027, with an estimated USD 5.4 trillion economy. However, the crux lies in ensuring this growth is diverse, inclusive, and equitable.
Adapting Technology for the New Economic Revolution
The key to sustaining this economic surge lies in adapting technology and democratizing governance. Building the growth framework for Digital Bharat necessitates a solid foundation in privacy, consent, and security. As we gear up for 2024, the integration of technology becomes the linchpin for this new era of economic prosperity.

From healthcare and education to trade, commerce, and wealth creation, these pillars are the building blocks for an inclusive society.
