    Happy to hear India got mentioned by the same executive during that conversation. We are just started buying from them. I went to Semicon India 2026, held in delhi last week. The energy was amazing. Really pleasant. all big names including ASML.

      It's is heartening looking at a country like India and thinking that it only seems to be a little behind China on the same trajectory. The little flashes of news as they start settling in to more interesting and high tech industries. Whatever good or evil comes out of their growing geopolitical power at least that is another billion people with a clear enough path to wealth and prosperity.

        India is more than a little behind China. Which is depressing, considering that the two countries were equal in GDP per capita as recently as 1990: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;m.thewire.in&#x2F;article&#x2F;economy&#x2F;from-1960-to-1990-india-and-china-were-at-par-how-did-it-then-overtake-us" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;m.thewire.in&#x2F;article&#x2F;economy&#x2F;from-1960-to-1990-india...

          But it would be hard to keep up with a country which has grown its GDP by 50 times since 1990, like China did.
