The India–France ATL (Atal Tinkering Labs) Bridge was formally launched at the Bharat Innovates 2026 summit in Nice, France. It is a bilateral education and technology corridor linking school-level innovators and teachers of the two countries. The initiative is a partnership between the Atal Innovation Mission, NITI Aayog and La Fondation Dassault Systèmes, and aims to nurture early engineering skills, scientific temper and design thinking among students. Under it, France will set up its first School Innovation Lab on India's ATL model, offering exposure to robotics, Artificial Intelligence, 3D printing and microelectronics.
